Changes proposed are...
- Added new solar calculation method "Bras"
- New cumulus.ini entries...
SolarCalc=0 (0=Ryan-Stolzenbach, 1=Bras, default=0)
BrasTurbidity=2 (atmospheric turbidity factor (2=clear, 5=smoggy, default=2)
- New cumulus.ini entries...
- Updated HidSharp to ver 2.0.5
- Should now use libusb-1 on Linux for Fine Offset and WMR200 stations
- Fixed corrupt/missing MySQL port causing CumulusMX to crash on startup
- Attempt to reconnect to Davis IP logger on connection failure (only a possible fix at this stage)
- Change default forum URL to its new home
