A new [2.0.0 alpha](https://github.com/Lymphatus/caesium-image-compressor/releases) is there as the successor of the original Caesium but it's still in alpha stage and very buggy at this moment. + +I got some issues while using the lastest 1.x version release so I decided to fix it for myself and also adding some features I need. Since it may also help other people have similar needs, I decided to release my patchset and maybe also a binary release in upcoming future. + +By the way, if there will be a binary release from me, I *might* rename the application before release so people get the binary will know it's a fork and will be able to report issue to correct place. Info and link to original work will also be added if that happens. + ### Resolved issues - Remove country/region flags since the original filename have encoding issue which can cause a build failure, and also to avoid some potential regional internationalization issues.
