Updates & End of Life


As mentioned in the Welcome, Network Drive Control (NDC) is an example of a utility I wrote to solve a frustrating problem I frequently encountered, namely wanting my network servers, both at work & home, mapped to Windows drives. The very earliest versions of NDC met my needs pretty well by the end of 2015, and the development subsequently has been simply as a hobby. People either would report a bug that my testing had failed to find, or they would have suggestions for making NDC easier for them to use, or to make it more useful in their environment. 



Updates


Updates do not follow a schedule and do not require sequencing. Updates may be as little as a day or two apart depending on my schedule, whether some previous functionality was actually broken by a new release & not caught in testing, and how hard something turned out to be to implement. By "do not require sequencing" I mean you can skip versions - even if your version is several behind the current release, you can still install the current release over it. In principle that's true no matter how large of a version difference.



End of Life


As of this version, I don't have any specific date in mind to stop updating NDC as the need arises. When I decide to no longer support NDC, it will be labeled similarly to the other unsupported software on my website, but still available for download.
