Låt den URDe komma in : 1.0.4

And with the help from our new bestest swedish friend Thorwak we now have an URD
that has support for the swedish language :) Another big improvement is support for uploading
binaries to usenet, complete with parring/rarring. Sharing your wedding video with your friends
and relatives has never been this easy!

Some of the smaller changes are:

  • Support for XZVER compressed headers (e.g. Astraweb)
  • Improved ETA / speed calculations (still not awesome though)
  • Support for downloading 'just' text messages
  • Autodownload feature is improved, now a per user permission
  • Bug fixed that could crash URDD with small downloads
  • Support for the '-' (exclusion) feature in search fields

Indeedy, this is a news message to inform you of a new URD release :D

  • (e.g., you can quickly select ranges of sets by shift-clicking in the browse page)
  • Now support for RSS feeds with basic authentication
  • Webinterface is more AJAX-ed, like 'upload NZB' and some admin pages
