Re: SteelSeries Announcements
Version 2.2.2 is available. The main fix is for WeatherCat users, so Cumulus users can probably ignore this release. There is a slight tweak to the gauges-ss.css to pretty the units table slightly, and the Nederlands translation has been updated that's it.
I have also updated the FAQ with information on tweaking the wind rose appearance.

Re: SteelSeries Announcements
Version 2.2.3 is available. It is primarily a bug fix for WeatherCat users using Knots for the wind speed units, so not much of interest for Cumulus users.
It does update the SteelSeries library to v0.14.0 though, which introduces the user LED, so it you want to 'play' with that you may want to take a look.

Re: SteelSeries Announcements
Version 2.3.0 is available, the key change is the addition of support for Meteobridge, but the only change relevant for Cumulus users is the updated windrose.js script which removes the blurring that sometimes occurs on the wind rose plot in previous releases.

Re: SteelSeries Announcements
Version 2.3.1 is available. A number of fixes in this release so I suggest everyone takes a look at it. At a minimum please update your copy of the steelseries library script files, the previous versions cause a script crash in Firefox v21+ if you use the following gauge frame types:
- Black Metal
- Shiny Metal
- Chrome

Re: SteelSeries Announcements
Version 2.3.2 is posted, not really relevant for Cumulus users as it is a bug fix from 2.3.1 for WeatherCat users. It does however contain an additional Portuguese translation courtesy of 'Werk_AG'

Re: SteelSeries Announcements
OK, there have been a couple of updates since my last post.
v2.5.2 - that affected people who are using the Saratoga templates with multi-language support.
v2.5.3 - I found a bug in the SteelSeries library wind direction gauge.
If you had already installed 2.5.1, then the only files you need to update are on your web server.
v2.5.2
/scripts/gauges.js
v2.5.3
/scripts/steelseries_tween.min.js
/scripts/src/steelseries.js
/scripts/src/steelseries.min.js
Check the ReadMe.txt in your zip file to see which version you have downloaded previously.

Re: SteelSeries Announcements
v2.5.4 is available, this is mainly changes for the Cumulus MX dashboard, and WeatherCat, so no real need to update from 2.5.3 unless you want to. Some internal changes make it more forgiving if you remove elements from the HTML page.
