There were a couple of important bugs that needed fixing. Also, an improvement to the way a spouse's maiden name and married surnames are designated. See this Forum post about it.

Version 1.0.1 Released - Blog comment by lkessler - 28 Dec 2011
Andy,
The organization and indentation within an individual is something I haven't looked at in a few years and it's worth revisiting.
My original concept was to start each Level 1 event/fact on each line. Then all the information that pertains to the event/fact would be in the same paragraph. ...

Version 1.0.1 Released - Blog entry by lkessler - 27 Dec 2011
There are actually a lot of new things in this new version. It could almost be named 1.1, but I won't do that since it would require another submission to Winqual for Behold's Window's 7 Certification - which i've actually achieved, but recognition of such is being delayed by something on Microsoft's side - but ...

The Place Record in GEDCOM - Blog entry by lkessler - 24 Dec 2011
Well, um, there is no Place record. But there should be. Currently in GEDCOM, you normally specify the place where something happened with a PLAC tag that is subordinate to an event, e.g.: 1 BIRT2 DATE 24 DEC 20113 PLAC Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada These events in GEDCOM are attached to individuals or ...

WordPress Bug on GenSoftReviews - Blog entry by lkessler - 22 Dec 2011
I got feedback from Bob trying to add a review to GenSoftReviews. He said there was no place to add it.
I took a look, and sure enough, the Add Your Review link was there, but under it was no form to enter your name, review and stars. Very strange. I tried it on my copy of the site on my own machine, and it ...

Brett:
The comment is still "awaiting moderation". This is the weekend, and they may only work on weekdays, so we have to give them until tomorrow at least.

Can't Accept PayPal (Hopefully temporary) - Blog entry by lkessler - 17 Dec 2011
I've been using Plimus to accept payments for Behold for almost six years now. They handle the secure purchase requirements of online sales that include credit card processing, currency conversion, charging VAT and refunds, and charge a commission on each sale for those services. They also accept PayPal ...

Out on a Bad Date - Blog comment by lkessler - 15 Dec 2011
The official standard is GEDCOM 5.5. The de facto standard is GEDCOM 5.5.1.
There is in fact very little difference between the two. In 5.5.1, the BLOB tag was removed and 8 tags were added, including some important ones like EMAIL, WWW, LATI and LONG, and a few extra syntactical changes were added that ...

Out on a Bad Date - Blog comment by lkessler - 15 Dec 2011
Brett:
Developers will need a good reason to change before they would. A new standard will have to be not too difficult to implement. It will have to be able to still work without requiring modifications to their current database. And it will have to offer them something that is so important they can't ...
