This first post will be updated as required for the latest news and downloads on the 3.3 release to avoid you having to read through the thread to get the most up-to-date status.

News
Development of Calibre2opds 3.3 is now deemed completed and Calibre2opds 3.3 (rev 274) has been released as the final 3.3 release.

The final 3.3 Release is now available (rev 274) at the Calibre2opds Googledrive download site. The ZIP distribution is installed by unzipping the contents over the previous release or by following the Manual Install instructions for the ZIP install in the User Guide.

The 3.4 beta program will now be started to handle fixing any errors reported in the 3.3 release, and for adding new features.

Localization
The localization of Calibre2opds to languages other than English has become rather incomplete. If anyone is willing to help in getting Localizations up-to-date (for an existing language) or add a new one), then details on the process can be found here. No special development skills are required - just familiarity with the target language(s) and some time to dedicate to the task.

Description:

The calibre2opds tool can generate OPDS and HTML catalogs from the metadata of the Calibre ebook library manager. The calibre2opds catalogs are intended for scenarios where use of the Calibre Content Server is not appropriate (see here for a comparison). These catalogs can then be used both to browse your ebook library online and also to download books on demand.
