I wonder if I'd be better off following this new version, or keep to the old ones on Alf's blog. |

In the spirit of Alf, contributed improvements become part of the tools.

That is why I would wait until the version in the comments is linked to or re-uploaded by Alf. I do expect though, that it will be.

Apprentice Harper's GitHub page shows 3 contributers: apprenticealf, pdurrant and apprenticeharper. This gives the impression that he has been working with them, but comments on MobileRead suggest he is not??

ApprenticeHarper has probably forked some repository on GitHub or somewhere else. That would explain the contributions.

It seems that Apprentice Alf has a github account too, although it doesn't look like it's been used very much. So at least Apprentice Harper is giving credit where it's due. Although I'm a little embarrassed to find my small contributions giving me a prominent place in the contributors list! |

Go to those contributors' github pages and see if it shows that they've contributed to apprenticeharper's repository. I'm not saying there's any foul-play going on or anything (I don't believe there is), it's just that seeing some familiar names in the contributors list on github does not equal collaborration with apprenticeharper. Oops! pdurrant beat me! |

That being said, if you're having Kobo or other ePub and PDF issues, this release may be helpful. I don't see anything in it for Kindle users. |

Yep, GitHub contributor matching is well-known for not being a proof to anything. It is simply a handy way to see what is being claimed.
You want proof, look for commits signed with a GPG key, but you usually won't find those outside high-profile repositories. e.g. The linux kernel has signed commits/tags. Apprenticealf seemingly has a GitHub account, and used it to create an empty repo. |

I am having trouble with 6.1.0 and the keygen for Nook. Two very recent purchases won't unlock yet the current key (and a regenerated key just in case) unlocks older downloaded locked files. No changes to credit card or account name. ignoblekeygen.pyw just comes up "failed" and the Nook PC epubs won't open in Adobe reader asking for unlock code.
Ahhh, ok. I see there is a new strategy to get the keygen that skips user name / credit card info, as per Alf's blog user comments. That worked based on some Jan 10 commentary. Last edited by SensualPoet; 03-12-2015 at 07:27 PM. |
