Happy Holidays and a little outlook to 2015

As the year comes to an end, it’s time for me to give you a small teaser for 2015. In the past 12 month or so, I’ve been working heavily on the next major version Diving Log 6.0 in parallel to the active development of version 5.0 and the phone and tablet apps. The current version 5.0 was started 6 years ago, which was also the beginning of this blog.

So after 6 years and 15 incremental updates within the 5.0 version, it’s time to move up to the next level. Major version updates in Diving Log are usually changes of the development technology and not so much about new features, which are implemented in the incremental updates in between. But there are still some great new things in Diving Log 6.0, which I’ll show you over the next couple of weeks – stay tuned!

I’ve decided to develop most of version 6.0 in private and not start writing about it until I’m sure it can be completed in a reasonable timeframe. Right now I’m planning to release it in spring 2015, but as always in software development, dates can slip.

I wish you Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas. Thank you for using Diving Log!
