Excellent!

Generous kudos to everyone at MR who lost sleep over this! :wink:

Any chance of:

  • Credits?
    Everyone knows Nicole worked like a dog to get this happening - but surely she wasn’t working in a vacuum? Who else at MR deserves kudos and heartfelt thanks for all this work?

  • Release notes.
    What’s changed? What’s improved? What issues might be remaining?
     
    Release notes are always a great idea!

Oops! My bad!
Silly me, I thought that was another direct download link.

Release notes are provided, and then some.
Thanks!!

  • Checksums.
    It has become a standard convention to accompany a release with a checksum (SHA-1, SHA-256, or otherwise), so the person downloading the release file can satisfy themselves that it is a valid download and hasn’t been compromised.
     

Thanks again to everyone at Modular Robotics for all your hard work!

Nicole really can take most of the credit for this! @cleoqc, would you like to post an acceptance speech?! :smiley: First, I’d like to thank my Mom and Dad, my agent…

When thing I noticed that was conspicuous by it’s absence was “upgrade instructions”.

As far as I know, the upgrade instructions from a prior version of DexterOS is “You can’t” - the jump in base version and functionality is just too far.

You might want to add a blurb to this indicating that it’s a total replacement for any earlier DexterOS release - re-flash and move your software over.
