Hi,

we're happy to announce the first release candidate of ownCloud Client version 1.5.1.

The most outstanding new feature is a automatic updater for the windows platform. It updates the windows client automatically if a new version is found on the server. This will also come for the Mac platform on the next version, but not for Linux where we continue to rely on the distribution packages.

Also a lot of other fixes and smaller features went into this release, please refer to the draft status changelog below.

Please help testing and post any bugs you might find to the github bug tracker. Please prepend the bugs subject with [1.5.1 rc1]. Needless to say that this is not yet released software which should not be used on production data.

Thanks,

Klaas
