BNCSutil 1.0.4 is now available for all supported platforms, including Mac OS X again.  In addition to fixing Mac WarCraft III CD-key decoding, this release fixes two non-critical bugs:

Bug #6: checkRevision() is not completely thread-safe.
Bug #8: WarCraft III key decoding prints debugging information to stdout.

Bug #6 applies to the parsing of the formula string; it used the function strtok(), which is not thread-safe.  Bots that support multiple connections connecting simultaneously, or that otherwise use strtok() in another thread should update soon.  Everyone else can probably wait until your next normal release.

Wasn't there a recent conflict about advertising stuff on here?

It's something that better the development of bots, like BNLS. I don't think he should get in trouble
for notifying the general body of BotDevelopers of something he has done for them. If he was advertising his bot then I'd see your point.

Good job Cloaked.

Yes, I have no problem with him posting about the release of a useful utility.

I commend him for even notifying us.

Its different advertising a bot, than a Library that can be used for development.

[Edit: Good Job! :)]

Yea, I was the "guinea pig" for this DLL library. I am using it for the bot I took over from Cloaked, (Myriad). It hasn't failed yet.
