Over the weekend we released Cucumber version 1.3.0. This was quickly replaced by 1.3.1 when we realised there was a bug 1.3.0 that only appeared on Windows.
Along with masses of bugfixes, this release contains the early stages of some serious internal refactoring work planned for release in version 2.0. Although our tests continue to pass, it may be that we've changed untested behaviour so that's why we've bumped the minor release number. We're already aware of one minor …

It provides a description of what Bitcoins are and how they're mined that should be comprehensible by non-techies, some easy-peasy instructions for turning any old Windows machine into a Bitcoin mining rig, and a quick guide to figuring out how much (or how little) money you'll make on your mining venture.

The current version of Windows' Hyper-V virtual machine, on which the Windows Phone 8 emulator runs, requires SLAT. i3, i5 and i7 processors have SLAT, but not the older Core 2s. My Windows machines may not be new, but they do a fine job running 64-bit Windows 8, the current edition of Microsoft Office, Adobe CS6 applications and more.
