This is a pre-release Windows build for testing purposes that includes some fixes intended to address wake/sleep issues.

PRE-RELEASE NOTES

Wake/Sleep Issues (Windows)

This testing build attempts to resolve the undesirable behavior logged under issue #7. It has been noted that on resume from sleep, the app would display a white screen and crash. Unable to replicate this specifically (the white screen is likely dependent on how long the device slept), but in more general testing it appears the error is primarily due to the loss of network I/O. This is further supported by logging activity from impacted users.

Added some additional logic to try and catch these network errors and re-initialize the app. In testing this was successful and was transparent - the restart occurred during wake up so the app had already restarted by the time I logged in.

Feedback is requested.

Memory Issues (Linux)

Implement a fix for unrestricted caching to /dev/shm to prevent unecessary memory consumption. Intended to address #8. This fix includes a re-write of the availability check, which should improve the app's disk usage. This will be included in the full release.
