Out of action for a few days

Filed under: Release Announcements — Jhong at 6:22 pm on Thursday, July 16, 2009

Over the last week or two, I’ve had less time to devote to WP-United. Partially due to work commitments, but also because I’m preparing for the upcomng solar eclipse on 22 July. (I’ve been busy preparing software that will automatically photograph the eclipse).

After next week, things should be back to normal, and I can then turn my attentions back to WP-United v0.8. In the meantime, please do read through the WP-United User Manual, and make use of the search function in the forums for installation shupport.

I’ll be back soon — hopefully with some good photos :-)

Out of curiosity, did you get any good pictures of the eclipse from where you were? It was cloudy in my part of Japan so we only got to see the beginning of it.

I was right near the centre line in Jiaxing, China, and it was 100% overcast and at times pouring with rain.

I had a telescope, camera, laptop, portable power, etc., and it was all I could do to hold umbrellas and try to keep things dry. In the end I gave up about 10 minutes before totality. I saw a partial eclipse for a few seconds following totality.

Shame really — will have to go and see another one now!

That is pretty similar to what happened to us! Better luck in 26 years X_X
