Please be sure you read and agree to the new license conditions before you upgrade, especially if you use Mountee with multiple sites. (But also note: upgrading to this version won’t stop Mountee from working with any of your sites. We wouldn’t do that to you.)
  • This is also our first release of a Mac application, so please let us know immediately if there’s anything that seems wonky. We want to get it fixed ASAP.
  • If you like Mountee, please tweet about Mountee and perhaps give us a review on devot:ee. The continued development of Mountee depends on a broad user base (and vice versa, of course!)
