Hi all,

We've just entered release testing for our v1.2 release of Commotion Router! We have testing images available below:

https://downloads.commotionwireless.net/router/1.2rc1/

The v1.2 release will include the following new features:
* Upgraded to OpenWRT Barrier Breaker as a base, providing better
performance, additional router support, and many other improvements.
* The nodogsplash splash screen has been replaced with a fork of
luci_splash, allowing for less resource usage.
* The addition of the new commotion-dnsproxy means that the splash
screen will work even when there is no internet gateway available.
* Better support for different wifi countrycodes and radios that support more than one band.
* v2.0 of Commotion Service Manager, for better reliability and less
resource usage.
* A new upgrade utility, that provides for forward compatibility and
signed images.
* Built with a new buildsystem that makes it easier to support multiple
hardware platforms and build images more quickly and consistently.
* Numerous bugfixes and upgrades.

If you're interested in helping with testing, just let us know! More hands make the testing process go quickly (hopefully everything will go
great and we can release next week!). We have a fairly thorough testing
protocol that you can use, which we've been using since early stages of=
the previous release:

htt= ps://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/#folders/0B38UMlgDzTMPfk9JWDFKUGE1UFZTVGtHQ= zJtOV8wWVUtWTAtNTloYkxwSTh3UmxfSkt6SDQ

There are a few things to be aware of with these images:
* The new images for the upgrade utility of the extension '.bundle'= , but
they can also be used in previous versions of Commotion without any
problems. These can not be used for flashing a router from stock
firmware, which is why we also still provide 'factory.bin' images.<= br> * Even though the new upgrade utility has the capability for signing
images, these images are not signed. Final v1.2 release images will be
signed.
* These images do not yet contain upgrade scripts for the new splash
screen. If you upgrade an existing Commotion install while saving
settings and the splash screen doesn't work, please try reflashing
without saving settings reporting that the splash screen doesn't work.<= br> * During development, we experienced an intermittent issue with Barrier
Breaker being more sensitive to low memory conditions, triggering the
out of memory killer and rebooting the node. If your node reboots during testing, you may be running into this issue. We figure more testers and
more data will help us track it down if it's still a problem.

Anyway, if you want to help with testing, please try out the images and
let us know how it goes. Otherwise, we'll be releasing final, stable an= d
supported v1.2 images as soon as we conclude with testing. Thanks!
