International ReCal Users Take Note:
I recently fixed a bug that had been preventing certain users with non-Latin character sets from executing ReCal. So if your computer uses a non-European language and ReCal has failed you over the past month or so, it might work for you now. As always, please don’t hesitate to let me know about any technical problems you may encounter.
ReCal: The Fine Print
As of Tuesday, November 11, 2008, I have begun collecting all data files uploaded through ReCal in order to improve the application. (Prior to today, all data was discarded as soon as ReCal ran its calculations.) By using ReCal you agree to license your data files to me for this purpose and for no other. Since your data files consist entirely of numbers meaningful only to you, it is completely anonymous—this is one of the reasons ReCal does not require text data headers. Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, and other providers of online services use your personal data in similar ways—but I don’t sell your files (not that there’s a market for CSV files full of unlabeled numbers anyway). If you have any questions about how I use ReCal user data, please leave them in comments below.
