CHDK Beta Releases

SD800IS CHDK 0.2 beta (allbest 37/trunk 310)

Leave a feedback in the forum about the testing of this beta version: http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/topic,445.0.html

Note about the different Firmwares

Cameras with the 1.00d firmware can/must use the CHDK version for 1.00e - the autobuild already just copies this, so when you have a 1.00d cam you will find YOUR version in the autobuild. Development is happening in the 1.00e tree, then compiled and just renamed for the 1.00d people.
