New software version

December 6th, 2006 - New software version released.

Better configuration saving: Save your settings and a single workspace layout on our server so you can access it from any computer you practice, or save as many layouts as you like on your local filesystem. Read more about differences between saving methods.

To enjoy the new release you don't need to install anything. The new applet will be automatically loaded once you practice the next time. Please note that it might take longer than usual, or the JRE might ask for your confirmation. For troubleshooting please consult the FAQ page.
