Free Updates — Annual Renewal of Update Support is terminated [2 August 2017]

Future software updates to Clooz (including and through version 4) will now be free of charge for all users who had active update support as of July 23, 2016, or purchased Clooz after that date.   It is no longer necessary to annually renew update support.   Development of the next major release of Clooz, Version 4, has taken much longer than anticipated, and updates have been slow in coming.   Ancestral Systems will now return to the more common practice of charging for major upgrades, beginning with Version 5.

Users whose update support had expired prior to July 23, 2016, will need to purchase a new license in order to receive future updates.  Contact support@clooz.com to obtain a discount.

Clooz versions 3.5.24 and later will recognize existing serial numbers and this change in policy.  Always use the latest serial number you were issued.

Fixed issue with source importing (when download date field was null).

Clooz Release 3.5.21 (17 December 2016)

Implemented changes supporting interface to upcoming Legacy version 9  (Clooz is fully compatible).

Clooz Release 3.5.17 (5 September 2016)

A “Today” button was added to the Website source template for filling in the access date.

Clooz Release 3.5.16 (24 July 2016)

Improved Ancestral Quest interface to include additional identifiers (user reference id, Ancestral File Number, Family Search Family Tree ID, global unique ID).

Improved display of the various identifiers (RIN, REFN, AFN, FSFTID) on the Composite View.  The columns will now appear for documents, but will only show data when expanded to list the people in each document.   These identifiers only apply to people.
