I am pleased to announce that there is a new version of Meeting Schedule Assistant now available.
What’s New
Several improvements have been made to the Meeting Editor.
Date and Time Settings
It is now possible to customize the Date and Time on your schedules (GitHub discussion):
All built-in templates have been updated to take advantage of this new feature.
Any customized versions of the Workbook / Worksheet templates (if you are using them) will need to be migrated. The linked GitHub discussion provides full details about what changes need to be made. But I appreciate that modifying templates can be daunting. Please don’t hesitate to let us know if you need help in migrating your own templates.
Updating Public Talk Databases
Firstly, I want to thank those of you who have used the new tool for submitting updates to public talk outlines. Please appreciate that there may be a delay before any submitted changes are reflected in the databases. This is because I endeavour to get any submissions verified by a second person. But, this is not always possible.
You’ll be pleased to know that we have improved the ability to update the database for public talks (GitHub discussion). Now it will only download the public talks database installer if it detects that the current database is out-of-date.
Slips Tab
The Meeting Editor now has a more informative and functional Slips tab (GitHub discussion). It is felt that this change will make things easier for first-time users of the software who don’t have the S-89 slip templates installed.
Detecting Duplicates
Discussion (with Video) assignments are now included when detecting duplicate assignments.
Bugs Fixed
Two bugs have been fixed:
Printing Personal Copies does not include the Discussion (with Video) Assignments. (GitHub discussion)- Corrected issue with downloading December 2023 monthly data (some student material information was wrong).
