Due to Leo Eggink’s age he is no longer involved.<br /><br />ZW 5 is still a work in progress, but it is suitable for most regattas.<br /><br />Regarding your entry on the following page, there are some changes I would like to bring to your attention<br /><br />Version: 5.01 (build 0, at the moment)<br />Author: Gerhard Bouma<br />The same handicap systems are supported, but ORC support will be completed in a later version. If necessary, the old version 4.24 is still available for this.<br /><br />Download size, approx. 3.3 Mb<br />Supports RSS 2021-2024<br /><br />The program is heavily used in the Netherlands as well as in Italy. <br />Supported languages at the moment are Dutch, Frisian, English and Italian.<br />Since your last publication the Dutch National Authority has decided to no longer support one specific scoring system.<br />Sail numbers may now contain letters in a prefix and suffix manner. Scoring is still done by entering the numeric part only.<br /><br />The program is still and will remain free, except for some new features that are added, like a results upload function with the e-Captain system.<br />A free registration of the software is required during installation. <br /><br />It can be downloaded from https://www.zw-scoring.nl<br /><br />I would like to kindly request you to re-evaluate the software and update your page according to your findings.<br /><br />Any feedback would also be very much appreciated.<br /><br />Best regards,<br />Gerhard Bouma<br />ZW-Scoring<br />Joshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10346870418220762709noreply@blogger.com
