v5.6 is getting close, there are rumors of RC/Final release coming "soon"
... ;)
For NanoBeam, we did just receive some good news from the lab this week, so
it appears there is light at the end of the tunnel. I wish I had more I
could share, but we'll definitely keep you updated as we get more info.
Thanks,
Matt
