Pocket Genealogist 2.96.1 (Pre-Release)
September 23, 2005
There is a new pre-release of Pocket Genealogist, v2.96.1 that is available for download, and offers fixes that include:
* Surname/Given Name processing
* Fixes for some problems when using 2-way sync in the Greek language
* Fixes for “Customize” screens that were affecting Windows 95/98/ME Users
Fixes for Windows genealogy applications:
* Changed PAF/FTM Genbridge imports to set the living/dead flag based on presence of a burial or death event. (You must re-import to see this change)
* Fix to Legacy V5 2-way synchronizing. (Introduced with 2.96 - would cause a “Changes also found in Legacy” warning which would stop the 2-way sync) Version 6 syncs were fine.
* Changed the RootsMagic profile to export notes in the proper format for RootsMagic. (Break lines within a word instead of between words)

Retrospect-GDS 2.0.2
September 19, 2005
Retrospect-GDS 2.0.2 has been released. Retrospect-GDS is a web application for displaying genealogical information. The design of the application is modular so that new features can be added easily. A template system is included to make it easy to modify the look and feel. Many popular genealogy reports are available in both HTML and PDF formats. Retrospect-GDS also supports multiple languages.
Developer’s Note:
2.0.2 is out and contains several bug fixes as well as a couple of new features requested by the community. There are two main enhancements in 2.0.2. The first is that commenters can now embed links within comments using simple wiki-like syntax. The second is that you can now upgrade existing installations of Retrospect-GDS without having to re-import your data (and lose all your comments, etc). The installer will detect an existing installation and will ask if you want to do an upgrade or a fresh installation.
