:!: Solar Eclipse Maestro 1.6.6, 1.6.6v2, 1.6.6v3, 1.6.6v4 & 1.6.6v5 users should upgrade ASAP to this fifth build as it corrects bugs where cameras may not be recognized or referenced anymore!

This release fixes all the reported bugs since the previous version and many more; under the hood improvements were made.
Unless new bugs are reported before mid-June, this release will make it through TSE 2010.

Users of all the previous versions planning to connect a Nikon or Canon camera and a GPS are strongly urged to upgrade to this
version. Support for previous versions is terminated as of this day. Browse the ReadMe file to know more.
Please report soonest any problem you may encounter as this version is likely to be used for the upcoming TSE.

Here is a short list of improvements and bugfixes:
- Direct access to Bill Kramer's eclipse chasers database: updates can be done from Solar Eclipse Maestro
- Removal of a spurious character inserted in the action log
- Fix for the Live View becoming sometimes synchronous
- Improved the Live View management when a script is running
- Fixed a problem where the Live View window title wasn't always displayed
- Fixed a crash when taking a test exposure from the Hardware Configuration dialog
- Multiple cameras with bracketing improvements
- Access to additional sounds without modifying the application package
- Display of the solar corona during totality
- Fixed an occasionally erroneous date display on the sky chart
- Fix on the sky chart for locations in the southern hemisphere
- Adjusted ∆T value for TSE 2010
- User interface tweaks
- Miscellaneous bug fixes and enhancements
