This is the first, and hopefully last, release candidate for TelldusCenter 2.1.2. There are only a few changes, compared to the beta versions. The only major one is concerning callbacks in Linux/Mac that sometimes stopped functioning earlier.

The only other noticeable addition is support for the Oregon Scientific pool thermometer (THWR800) in TelldusCenter.

A new beta with these functions will also be released for Windows and Mac.

HOW TO INSTALL
Follow the instructions here: http://developer.telldus.com/wiki/TellStickInstallationUbuntu but instead use this Apt-line: deb http://download.telldus.com/debian/ unstable main

Known issues:
TelldusCenter sometimes still segfaults on some platforms
TelldusCenter may stop automatic update of sensors and device state

We are still working on these issues, and if you run into them, or other problems, please let us know your system setup and, if possible, how to reproduce them.

Finally it's time for the first beta release of TelldusCenter 2.1.2! This release is primarily focused on hanging issues and problems with lost communication with TellStick Duo. It's the same code fixes already deployed to some of you who have experienced these problems, but without unnecessary debug logging and an even newer driver version.
