Hi there,
after we did start our work to create a bugfix version we couldn’t stop and find an end.
Well we had ups and downs but finally it resulted in a major version with many new features.
We are happy to announce the new NQ ‘Tool’ release !!!
Best NQ ever will be available soon …

Ira for NQ dev team
ps:
Dog’s tongues, otter’s noses and occelot spleens to all involved! (IlDuca, Arkox, luborg, warren, alice & ailmanki)
Less trouble goes to crapshoot ‘one man band’ and a starship (you know what I’m talking about) goes to ‘el presidente’ core.
You guys still rock
