Wow Congratulations!

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

I've just come back to Cumulus MX 3.6.7 b3083 after a few years just letting Cumulus 1 and later a very early version of MX quietly do its stuff. I did the upgrade last night and am so impressed, with the improvements. Well done all involved!

Yes, what you have seen is what Mark Crossley has done to transform MX (with a few inspirations from others).

The version you were using is what existed when Steve Loft stopped working on Cumulus (MX) to enjoy his new life in France.

For those who are still using Cumulus 1, the version of MX that Geoff was previously using lacked lots of the features you enjoy,

but the version of MX Geoff is now using, whilst not functionally equivalent to C1 in that some of C1 processing has not been carried across, it has added a lot of new functionality not available in C1, particularly with how it works with new weather station units.

Yes MX is much improved, from the earlier version I was using, as I said, but I did like Cumulus1 and regret its development was never continued..

I wish Steve well on his French Odyssey! I notice since I was last on the forum the "Donate" button has vanished. I have always liked being able to show my appreciation at major new developments or when help has been needed and found here!
