Is there somewhere on this webpage where I can see what is new in the latest version? If not, can someone tell me what new features are in v4.25?

All installations run the daemon, and optionally the manager. This replaces the choice of CLI and GUI.

The manager looks completely different from the GUI.

The install allows for install as Single, Multiple, or Service during the install.

The management port has changed from 31416 to 1043.

Individual WUs can be suspended.

Individual projects can be suspended.

The daemon knows how to stop requesting work from a project for a nice shut down (this must be accessed through BOINCView.

MISSING FEATURES

Column sort.

Pie graphs on the disk tab.

Right click (has been replaced with a pane on the left). This one at least is comming back soon, and the pane on the left will be hideable.

There may be more features, but I cannot think of them right now.

Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the feedback. I've also noticed that the screensaver now works on my XP machine which has multiple users. Wouldn't it make sense to have a link on the home page of this project that lists new features?
