font-family:Arial'>Version 2.05 of the Squeak harvesting tool has been
registered with SqueakMap. BFAV 2.05 sports a new reviewer notepad that
is considerably more friendly, usable and powerful than the previous version:</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Also, this package release has significant performance
enhancements. Locally-cached posts load almost instantly now. This
means that when hitting the down or up arrow to move through the listing
quickly, or when clicking rapidly around in the listing, that the only time you
should see a delay is when the BFAV2 has to download details about a post from
the server.</span></font></p>

that as of 3.7a-5707, there is a known bug (caused by the recent Chronology
updates) that breaks “load updates” for the BFAV2. A fix has
been submitted, tested and approved for this bug – but the fix is not yet
in the update stream.</span></font></p>

working from 3.7a-5707 or later images need to load this before opening the
BFAV:</span></font></p>
