Thanks for your interest in this. Getting this working is a high 
priority for me.

I checked out the link that you posted. I am interested in Windows and 
Macos Clients. Currently I've been testing the Windows client but can't 
see any nightly builds for that OS on that page. Can you provide a more 
specific link please?

I did check the preview releases but dont ee anything newer than the 
4.0.1.2 version that I have.

Many thanks.

Roderick
