100 builds since MX was taken over by Mark

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Yes :clap: :clap: and 228 Github downloads for b3143 in less than 2 days. Previous v3.12.0-b3141 had 850 downloads.
I believe v3.0.0-b3044 beta test started December 1, 2018 and released for download by Mark on December 5, 2018, but the earliest Mark zip I can find is CumulusMXDist3047-20190203 and CumulusMX.exe was 799 kb and b3143 is 1615 kb.

Steve's latest b3043 was October 25, 2018.

Enjoy,
Paul

:clap: - Indeed, much praise and thanks should be awarded.

So much cheaper than paying Mark the minimum wage per hour for the ridiculous amount of time he has spent tweaking and innovating 8-)

There was a very dark cloud looming for many of us when Steve Loft made his announcement,
but he deserves NO critique for that. Good on him for enjoying some earned retirement.

Screenshot 2021-08-14 090425.jpg

Fortunately for all of us Mark stepped in & has turned thing into a very positive long term forecast.

Much of our appreciation is silent, but it certainly is there.


Thank muchly for your efforts Mark.

Cheers.

I should add it it is not just the routine maintenance that has impressed me but the amount of new features from MTTQ to new weather stations and new features like "feels like" and many more.

Your continuing ability to answer "dumb" questions from the rest of us without loosing your cool is also part of this.

CumulusMX is now a completely different product to the version passed on by Steve thanks to you Mark :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Thank you everyone, it has taken over my life a bit - I can appreciate what Steve must have done over all those years. What I have done is tweaking around the edges of his foundation.

But I have to announce that I too will be retiring soon and leaving Cumulus behind.








Joking, you've got me for a bit longer yet! At least for this winter anyway!
