[ANNOUNCEMENT] Umit 0.8.1-testing release

["Adriano Monteiro" <py.adriano () gmail com>]

Hi Folks!

I'm pleased to announce the Umit 0.8.1 testing release. This release
features the new Compare Results Window, and a few other usability and
performance improvements. The 0.8.1-testing release is currently
available for download at the source forge project page[1] in the
following formats:

    * Source packages compressed in the formats: tar.gz, tar.bz2 and
zip (Higwidgets included)
    * Windows installer with Umit and Higwidgets only
    * Windows installer with Umit, Higwidgets and every related dependencies

Windows users won't have any problem while installing Umit using the
installers. I tested umit installers in Windows XP Professional
(Without Service pack), Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003 Enterprise.

Linux users should take a look at README file inside source packages
for installation instructions.

* For detailed installation instructions, please visit this page[6] *


About this testing release:

The major diference you'll note on Umit, is the new Compare Results
Window, that now, provides two diferent modes for scan comparison: The
old text diff, that you may already know, and the Comparison mode,
that shows you a cleanner view of what has changed from an scan to
another without the need of know the diff symbols and behavior. Along
with this brand new feature, you'll be able to customize the higlight
colors with a few clicks.

Another feature is the bug report interface, that will allow you
report a bug directly at the project bug tracker at source forge,
without the need of moving your mouse off the application. With just a
few seconds, you'll be able to tell us the issues you've found, and
we'll be pleased to fix it as fast as we can. If you like the source
forge bug tracker interface, there is no problem! You can use it as
usual. Please, try to describe the bug as better as you can, making us
able to reproduce it and found the issue. Try to send also the nmap
command, output, and XML output that caused the problem. Try to be as
clearer as possible, so I can fix it faster. ;-)


What's new?

    * Compare Results Window now features two modes, and highlight
color customization
    * Usability improvements: now you can open umit and start typing
the target address. The tab navigation experience was improved as
well.
    * Bug report interface - Report a bug without the need of openning
a web page, registering to the bug tracker, etc.
    * Performance improvements
