  • Updates scoring to RRS 2017-2020:
    • Minor change to how scoring penalties are calculated in RRS 44.3(c)
    • Added new UFD penalty (RRS 30.3)
  • Updates Annapolis YC's Wed Night Racing and Frostbite scoring
  • Fixes several bugs in Pursuit scoring
  • Added option to have TLE of finishers+2 to max out at number of entries (instead of DNF)
  • Clears out (I hope) odd bugs such as:

February 24, 2013: Version 7.1.1 BETA release

  • supports (and requires) Java 7, and for Mac 64-bit Java
  • time-based penalties fixed

March 23, 2012: Version 5.7.03 released.

In 5.7.03:

  • added Laser World Championship requirement to limit the number of throwouts in a finals series to a max of one throwout
  • fixed small bugs in ISAF XRR xml export

In 5.7.01:

  • upgrade to Java 6 - hopefully means fewer interfaces weirdnesses that come and go and that none of us can replicate
  • improvements/bug fixes to handling regattas where the classes split into multiple divisions
  • improved support for ISAF medal races
  • fixed several bugs in entering redress values

Provided you have Java 6 or later, the installer has been tested on Windows 7, Mac Lion, and Mac Snow Leopard - hopefully that cover just about everyone. At least for Mac (and maybe windows too) - only the 32-bit Java is supported, the 64-bit version does not work... I'm working on fixing that for the next release.

If the installer gives an ugly error, check the FAQ to make sure that the right version of Java is being accessed.
