uSync 8.1.0
uSync Umbraco 8.1 Compatability Release
We were quite lucky - uSync missed most of the breaking changes with Umbraco 8.1 - so in theory version, 8.0.1 will still be fine with the Latest Umbraco release - but with 8.1 some of the UI doesn't line up and we had some goodies we been waiting to package together.
Fixes
- Language Guid Consistency - The Key for a language item doesn't stay the same between restarts, so we have replaced it with a pseudo-Guid of the language code - just makes for cleaner compares. (42eb12b)
Updates
-
Component views for the update and reporting panels (db7709c) helps us re-use them in other things (like snapshots which we are working on!)

ConfigurationSerializers - https://github.com/KevinJump/uSync8/blob/master/uSync8.Core/DataTypes/IConfigurationSerializer.cs
New: Config Serialization :
Allows you to get some say on what happens when a datatypes properties are serialized in and out of an usync file. - this will be needed if we want to map ids at this point (mostly we don't because everything is GUIDS). and as a proof of concept, we have a MediaPicker Config Serializer (https://github.com/KevinJump/uSync8/blob/master/uSync8.Community.DataTypeSerializers/Examples/MediaPickerConfigSerializer.cs) that blanks the start node on import.
this will be getting more work over the next few releases, we will add mapping helper methods so its easier to maintain ids etc - but this gets the process started.
