Okey, so this the first beta of Courier 2.5, which represents the first big jump in regards to features and the way Courier 2 works internally.
This release aims to solve the most common problem with Courier 2, which is: Time-outs, transfers taking too long, files being too big or connection being really slow. So to remedy this, all long-running tasks have been migrated to to run in a multi-threaded task manager.
Secondly we've received some great feedback from Umbraco MVP Sebastiaan, who gave us some insight on how to improve the initial experience. That is not complete yet, we're still working on the new videos, but kudos to Sebastiaan for the suggestions and ideas
Finally I've refactored the way transfer, packaging, and extraction happens between the different locations, so all things now use the same system and api, which will make future maintance much lighter for us, as well as making the different providers more powerfull.
So to recap the changes:
New tasks manager and threaded execution of long-running tasks
Mayor refactor of the way Courier performs tasks between locations
UI tweaks on especcially the Express version
Added better control over what you transfer, using the right-click dialogs
Support for 4 ucomponents datatypes
Courier Express can now use 3rd party data resolvers with license-issues
These mayor changes, does however also mean that a few apis has been changed. These are:
These are however only important to those who are writing their own deployment clients, which I doubt is that many, BUT if you do have issues with these changes, please get in touch and I would ofcourse help you out with rewriting your app.
During next week, I'll update the developer documentation in regard to how you use these new apis

Please let us know if there are any documents to see the features of Courier 2.5
Was there any update on the developer documentation for courier 2.5? The version 2.0 developer API document does not match the API at the moment...?
Thanks
