I apologize about this, and about the "unidentified developer" warning. I really need to get my Apple developer membership sorted.

Sorting the apple developer certificate was easier than expected So now the bundle on the site is signed and no longer shows the warning. I will work on making it a .dmg eventually.

I do wonder if this issue is osx specific. I've been uploading the 0.5.7 update parts so perhaps those on linux & windows have been receiving the update messages. I'm still on 0.5.6

But doesn’t this mean that potentially people (downloaders) will be sharing "song.flac" without support information and thus a little meaningless? People would need to guess what song of the same title and artist, etc. That is not only if they choose to share what they download but also to a smaller extent for themselves to recall what details existed if the file's ID tags were not particularly inclusive. I've previously seen poorly (or barely or non-existent) tagged files across networks and it can be annoying.

I guess that does bring in the Trust factor concept about the accuracy of sidecar files. But once in a while a person might also make an honest mistake.

Any possibility of adding interactivity with the uploads window?
Things like right-clicking with options such as view file information, find in library, find on disk, etc. This is particularly relevent if a shared file is simply "song.flac" and your library has multiple files of same song but different versions (such as live/studio/rehearsal, jam, etc.)

Probably due to the way uploads are listed via Java, the uploads listings are difficult to select for more than a second or two.

That puzzles me, 0.5.6 should download a mac-specific update file called "MuWire-mac-0.5.7.zip". Can you open the file ~/Library/Application Support/MuWire/MuWire.properties and tell me what the "updateType" property says?

What you describe is a big issue and I don' t know if a perfect solution exists. Comments in MW only "travel one hop". But I'm working on a new feature which will help when people rename the files they download, amongst other things. More details here https://github.com/zlatinb/muwire/wi...e-Certificates

I'll look into it. The selection thing is fixable for sure, I just never thought the uploads window would need to be interactive so didn't bother to preserve the selection across updates.

updateType=jar

I had thought the download updates issue had stopped. But I noticed I downloaded two 0.5.7's and 0.5.6 was in that attempting to download with unknown eta status.

Can you stop MuWire, change the value of the updateType property to "mac" (without the ") and start MuWire again? About a minute after startup it will query the update server and should start downloading the right update package.

First time I've seen a macupdate in the downloads window. But looks like it will be some time before I get it. I presume I receive a popup message after completion.

Appears to have finished downloading. But no notifications. Or do I need to restart?

Something's broken then, there should have been a popup. Anyway, I'll be releasing 0.5.8 in the next few hours, and if you're running 0.5.7 there should definitely be a popup with a message from me.

oops I notice I appear to be redownloading two copies of the macupdate and another copy of the 0.5.7 standard update.
OK I'll manually update.
