Engine Update

Today we completed an update on the engine behind the widgets. The new engine will run in parallel with the old for two weeks.

In practice, the only widget now using the old engine is the multi-book rotator.

Tomorrow, a new version of this widget will be undergoing final testing with the new feed (following a recode to improve speed and performance). At some point tomorrow the widget engine will be upgraded to the new version. The look and feel will be identical, although a few bugs may vanish.

You don't need to do anything - this is all at the back end.

That's the ironic thing about fixes during beta testing - if you do it right, then no one notices.
