Posted at 2020-09-23 by @gfwilliams Ahh, you used the IDE to download? Sorry - just checked up on this and it looks like the JSON files are wrong. Just updated them and it should now work ok if you refresh. |

Posted at 2020-09-23 by @gfwilliams I'm afraid not... Are there any error messages? Any chance you could share the script privately via email/forum PM? Or strip it back to something that you can share but that still exhibits the problem? |

Posted at 2020-09-24 by @gfwilliams @Jean-Philippe_Rey I have just updated the 2v07 release with a fix for the issue you were seeing. Anyone who downloads 2v07 from now on should be fine though. |

Posted at 2020-09-24 by rj Any reason why the semver specification is not adopted by the project, Gordon 🙂? (I think it's used with the IDE already, right?) I see some potential frustrations if people think they have a specific FW version, but not the same behavior, as others 😬. Personally, if I already had version 2.07, I would be very unlikely to download it again. Or is this what the cutting edge builds are meant to cover? |

Posted at 2020-09-24 by @gfwilliams The issue for me really has been it's a reasonable undertaking to ensure that all the supported boards actually work with a specific firmware version, and it can take a while for everyone to flash firmware too so I don't want to be releasing new versions all the time. So generally a release is when:
To get around that, there are the cutting edge builds, which are As for re-releasing a firmware image of the same number: yes, it's totally confusing and I try not to do it, however if it's been less than a day or two since the last release and there's something big that basically makes the firmware unusable on one of the devices I think it's probably worth doing. In reality very few people will have updated to the new firmware at that point. I figure more people will be inconvenienced in the long term if a broken firmware is left on the website. |

Posted at 2020-09-24 by rj I see your point(s) 😎.
I completely agree. And the gain-to-hassle ratio should also be reasonable of course. I might disagee the day Espruino is powering mission critical components on the Orion Spacecraft though 😬. |

Posted at 2020-09-30 by saj42 Hi, I just got a new Micoro:bit and flashed it immediately to 2v07 as I want to interact with my Pixl and Puck. Lovely and easy. Unfortunately Thanks |

Posted at 2020-10-01 by saj42 Hi @gordon, I'm not sure now whether this is the right place to post but I'll give it a go. That's started to work well now. The code is simple and is....
My code is ~300 bytes.
Thanks

Posted at 2020-10-02 by @gfwilliams Ok, I've just pushed a fix. But this really isn't the right place - if you have issues with micro:bit please post them in the 'Other Boards' forum - otherwise every 'new version' news thread just gets posted issues people are having (legitimate or not) with each new version. |

Posted at 2020-10-02 by saj42 Thanks, I wasn't sure whether the issue is v2.07. I'll re-post on the 'other board' forum. thanks |

Espruino 2v07 is now out!
This one contains mainly minor tweaks and improvements. However:
Bangle.js power consumption has been massively improved. Battery life when idle is now up to around 90 days from the 1-2 weeks it was previously.
Other notable improvements are:
