As a start, 1.2.5 contains a French and a German localization (many many thanks to Ronald Leroux for providing an excellent French localization). Additionally, the help book (which is fully translated in the localizations as well!) has been updated ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2008/06/27/lighthouse-125-going-international/ Lighthouse 1.2.4 is a maintenance release that fixes a few minor issues reported by our users.

Unfortunately, this is extremely bad timing since we're currently on a vacation until mid-September, away from our test routers. Therefore, we ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2007/08/30/please-dont-upgrade-your-airport-extreme-to-721/ It's always good if you don't have too push out bugfix releases all too often, but once in a while it becomes necessary. This time, we're fixing two very rare hangs that could happen when stopping a profile or when heavy traffic is flowing over the router. Additionally, we've further reduced ... http://codelaide.com/blog/2007/07/25/a-little-bugfix-release-121/ Lighthouse is on MacZot! today!
