    I forgot to update the version numbers before building the release, thus the version numbers are wrong: they are of the form 1.5.3183.xxxx.  The content is correct however.  I'm going to make another wee change and release a 1.7 with correct version numbers sometime soon!

    What additions should we expect in new version?

    Nothing interesting! :-)  (It would better be numbered 1.6.1 but I don't want to get into deeper numbering schemes).  I've mostly run out of things to work on.  I've not had any feedback asking for new features.  I had all the core parts of OBEX done in the first releases, and no one seems to use authentication or sessions, and I've no bugs to fix.  So feedback is welcomed, is there something you see that the library could do?

     

    The wee issue that I'll fix is a slight oddity in GetFolderListings where the operation is completed by sending an ABORT to the server.  This happens because we don't read all the way to the end due to:

    [...] the fault firstly in the Belkin/Broadcom software on Windows, the documents it produces end with null bytes.  This was known and worked-around in Beta 2, the parser being careful to stop reading immediately that it hits the document end element.

    This causes no problems as far as I know but thought I'd fix it anyway in case the ABORT appears to server logs and might confuse someone. I'd started working on it, but wanted to get 1.6 out before I completed a fix, so the wrong version numbering gives me an excuse to release it.
