We will make another attempt to migrate to the new xcode 7.x build servers this Sunday. This might introduce some disruptions to your iOS builds but those should be fixable.
One of the stackoverflow discussions below sparked an interesting group discussion about improving the UI design of a Codename One app. If you feel your app could use a design/UX improvement feel free to post it to the forum. We are no substitute to a proper UX/UI designer but having worked on a lot of apps we might be able to help a bit with some feedback/ideas.
Our updated release from this week contains some bug fixes but nothing groundbreaking.
Onwards to the questions on stackoverflow:
Rounded URLImage not displaying
It would be great if we could find a way to workaround this so it would throw an exception.
Get current Date without time on CN1
Date/time is painful. I wish we did have JSR310, ideally we’ll port it to Codename One at some point.

How to get unique identification number of iphone
iOS is generally resistant to such information, we have the UDID but since apps may depend on it we can’t provide better options today.
IntentResultListener not being called
We had some issues with monitoring intents on Android that should be resolved now. This also impacted QR scanning and other issues
Qrcode (zxing) scan successful but not returning to main form
QR scanning had some issues on Android due to intent changes
Barcode scanning broken
Because we shifted from regular scanning to the cn1lib etc. things might have broken in between. They work well in the latest version
