After a short — almost monthly — delay; today, we are releasing the latest build of Nimi Places 20260909, which brings fixes for both reported and identified issues.
The release delay was caused by ongoing, long-term website maintenance, a substantial rolling update for the website CMS, and other long-term project coding activities, which include Jade. Notably, issue that could be related to reported Nimi Places crashes without error prompt has been fixed in Jade.
While not all issues have been confirmed as fixed, they have been addressed to provide more detailed diagnostic information if they occur again.
