We are readying a new release of midas and it is almost here except for a few buglets on the new html status page.

The current release candidate branch is "feature/midas-2017-10" and if you have problems with the older versions
of midas, I recommend that you try this release candidate to check if your problem is already fixed. If the problem
still exists, please file a bug report on this forum or on the bitbucket issue tracker
https://bitbucket.org/tmidas/midas/issues?status=new&status=open

Highlights of the new release include
- new and improved web pages done in html and javascript
- many bug fixes and improvements for json and json-rpc support, including improvements in handling of long strings in odb
- locked (protected) operation of odb, where odb shared memory is not writable outside of odb operations
- improved multithead support for odb
- fixes for odb corruption when odb becomes 100% full

For the next release we hope to switch midas from C to fully C++ (building everything with C++ already works). To support el6 we avoid use of 
c++11 language constructs.
