IIAB 6.7 is scheduled for release around November 2018, building on Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB) 6.6 — in honor of IIAB iron meteorites !

  Consider installing a pre-release today, from http://download.iiab.io/6.7 !


Roadmap ideas are evolving at github.com/iiab/iiab/milestone/4 and in the very early draft IIAB 6.7 Release Notes.

Implementing "Captive Portal" functionality (for those who can't easily type URL's in a Latin script etc, similar to Wi-Fi pages that appear when you connect in airports/hotels/restaurants) has proved very challenging. We could use assistance from web experts in this ongoing effort to get it right! (see also #412, #826 and #870)
