Chirrup 0.81 released 03 Jul, 2008

Hi there, sorry I haven’t written in a while. It’s this damned work business. Some actual content is promised soon.

Anyhow - A rather nasty text-escaping bug popped up in Chirrup, so I’ve issued a patch in version 0.81 which is available for download now.

The problem: Badly-formatted tweets containing certain special characters caused Chirrup’s JSON to fail parsing and the Chirrup UI to not display.

The fix: Improved sanitisation routine for tweet data being sent over JSON.

Happy Tweeting.
