Exclamation RDSS 2.2.2020 Software Update

(Update Nov 4 - RDSS 2.2 has been released. See the last post: http://paceandcap.com/forums/showpos...26&postcount=7)

Looks like the promised RDSS update is on schedule for a release by the end of this coming week (end of October). A bunch of folks are helping me to stress test this and are coming up with some good small bits to tweak, but the major parts look solid (thanks everyone ):

1. No non-responsive behaviour, no slow-down
2. TwinSpires data flowing again: Scratches, ProfitLine, Prime Power - and before the release: Tote (WPS pools) and Mutuel Results.
3. More stable in memory usage and 'crash-resistance'.
4. Numerous other long-standing bugs and To Do's.

For those testing, expect 1 or 2 more updates this week. For everyone else, I'll be sending an email announcing the update availability from the usual download place, plus some initial documentation. Also, watch this space!

This update - RDSS Version 2.2 - represents a major platform update to a new version of my long-standing development tools with new internet access and better memory management tools, plus a new Installer. Not everything will appear in this October update, but I am better prepared to deliver more frequent updates than recently. After this initial update, I have several further ones planned by the end of the year plus a general overhaul to Documentation. Hopefully also some videos, maybe some Zoom meetings (tutorials, AMAs).

It feels good to get this out there after so long - sorry for the inconveniences with cranky software behaviour these past months.

Ted
