We're back baby! We lost power on Sept. 8 due to a nasty and unexpected storm that took down a big tree in our neighborhood which then broke a telephone pole. Unfortunately, once the pole and wires were fixed, we found out that our ONT also died. After far too many calls with Verizon, we finally got someone to come out and replace the ONT (which takes 2 minutes - if only we could buy the part to do this ourselves!).

Otherwise, there are a few minor updates:

  • Correct a bug in the API that was not properly sending create dates for photo and video categories
  • Update libraries

  • Optimized server config to enable more compression, which should especially benefit mobile users
  • Runtime and libraries upgraded to latest versions
