Back from hols, and here are first impressions after my first 0.7 upgrade: 1. No issues detected with the upgrade process so far - nice
2. Edit tab now groups config files logically - thank you 3. Restore option - thank you 4. Log display on Status tab now scrolls horizontally - perfect Only GUI blip I can see so far (IE7/PC) is that the bottom fragment (less than one line, as far as I can tell) of the log is not displayed, and there is no vertical scrollbar (so I can't tell if more lines are truncated below this) - I can get a screenshot to someone if helpful, and will look at it myself tomorrow. Hopefully I can start delving tomorrow in proper depth. However, a huge thanks for this, and for providing the beta images, as I never could get my builds to work. I hope to get two of these into production, maybe before Christmas.
