<div class="markdown_content"><p>Drawpile 0.9.8 is now out! This release fixes a couple of major regressions introduced in the last version, in addition to the usual feature improvements.</p> <p>Fixed bugs include:</p> <ul> <li>Unnecessary retcon at start of new strokes (improves performance)</li> <li>Fixed regression in annotation tool (annotation moving/resizing was broken in previous release)</li> <li>Fixed retconning of indirect strokes</li> </ul> <p>A bug that would crash Drawpile was reported for the previous version, but I have not been able to reproduce it myself. I did find a bug that might explain it, but haven't been able to test the fix. So, if you manage to crash the new version, please let me know!</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Version 0.9.2 of Drawpile is now ready, containing dozens of bug fixes and usability improvements, as well as a few new features.</p> <p>New features include:</p> <ul> <li>Session hibernation, which allows persistent sessions to survive a server restart</li> <li>An experimental web admin API for the server</li> <li>Support for authenticated logins and moderator access on dedicated servers</li> <li>I18n support</li> </ul> <p>Bulk of the changes in this version are bug fixes. Refer to the commit log and github issue tracker for a detailed list.</p> <p>This version also breaks compatibility with recordings made with older versions! However, the changes also make the protocol more future proof, so there will probably not be another backward compatibility breaking change in a long time.</p> <p>The chat functionality also changed in behaviour. Chat messages are no longer stored as part of the session, but are sent only to the currently logged in users. A chat may be marked as an announcement, however, in which case it will be stored for future users to see as well.</p></div>
