[Forrest]

NNDK 2.5.0 is now out and available for download at http://support.netburner.com. Please report any issues in this thread or directly to support by submitting a new ticket at http://support.netburner.com.

Beta versions of our NNDK are released for evaluation purposes only. We do not recommend using this release in an end product until it has been thoroughly tested. As with all new releases, this will be a beta for the first 8-12 weeks while we await feedback. If no major issues are present, we will upgrade this to an official release.

any feedback on this release yet?

I'm confused by the announcement today that NNDK 2.5.0 has been released as beta, when the root message in this thread indicates the same thing.

Today's release appears to be Beta 2.5.1...

Sorry,
When I edit an old post, if you subscribe to the email updates, it gets emailed out like a new post. It causes confusion, even here around the office. I was removing the 2.5.0 sticky.

In other news, the 2.5.1 sticky is now up

Does this then indicate that 2.5.0 is the official production release? If so, how may it be acquired?

2.5.0 had some bugs that were addressed in 2.5.1. Because of those issues, we did not upgrade 2.5.0 to official release. 2.5.1 is a second try, and we hope to upgrade it to official release after a public testing period.
