Manyfold

It’s been a while! Partly that’s due to life beyond code, but also it’s because we’ve focused this release on making some big improvements to uploading, performance and bugfixing.

When you upload zipped models now, you will be sent directly to the created model (or the list if there’s more than one) with the archive in it, at which point the files are then extracted and added into Manyfold. You can even watch it happening, it’s pretty cool. There’s also a big improvement to memory performance and job recovery, which means that “it only uploaded half the model then broke” should be a thing of the past, finally.

As well as that, we’ve got a couple of little things like the beginnings of a Lithuanian translation (if you enable experimental languages), FreeCAD thumbnail display! The next release shouldn’t be as long, so stay tuned. This one took a lot of time to debug!
