Release Notes

This was a major update for the gadget although many of the biggest changes are below the surface.

The entire data engine was rewritten to be much cleaner. It shouldn't ever be visible, but I probably cut out about 50% of the code.
Everything about a resort is updateable without reinstalling the gadget. I'll be able to add resort-specific links and new web cams through the normal server update process. Every two hours the gadget downloads the latest configuration in the background to make sure you're getting all the right information.
Almost all of the resorts from Whistler down to the Mt. Hood resorts are now included in the gadget. If it’s a ski area and NWAC has sensors there, it’s in the gadget. This means that there are now a couple resorts that don’t have 24 hour snowfall sensors. Those will just show up as blank spots in the gadget. The full list is: Whistler, Baker, Hurricane Ridge, Stevens Pass, Summit/Alpental, Mission Ridge, Crystal, White Pass, Mt. Hood Meadows, Mt. Hood Ski Bowl, and Timberline. They are arranged north to south in the display. If you go into the settings page you can deselect the ones that don’t interest you.
