Mar. 2 2007: TULP2G 1.4.0.4 released.
TULP2G is a .NET 2.0 based forensic software framework for extracting and decoding data stored in electronic devices. Along with the framework this version includes several plug-ins in the area of retrieving data from mobile phones and generating the accompanying reports.

This release fixes an error in the installer, TULP2G can now be installed on machines that only have .NET 2.0 installed. Furthermore the SIM plug-in has been expanded to include support for reading out UMTS USIM cards. For more changes, see the changelog. Download the new release from the file area. The sources will be released after testing within a week.

Apr. 21 2006: TULP2G 1.3.0.3 sources released.
The full sourcecode to the recent 1.3.0.3 release of TULP2G is now also available. Biggest change is that the included build script now requires .NET 2.0 and Visual Studio 2005. The TULP2G sourcecode can still be built using the freely available .NET 2.0 Framework SDK, but to simplify our development environment we no longer directly support this. The good part is that the directory layout has improved and the build is much quicker. Get the zipfile with the new code here.

Feb. 15 2005: Issue deadline and plug-in howto.
Every three months a rollup package consisting of all fixed bugs, implemented features and fixed/updated/new plug-ins will be released. The releasedate for the first rollup package has been set to April 1st 2005 (not a joke!) In order for us to properly test fixes and updates before the next release, we will only consider bugs/features for this release that have been submitted before March 1st 2005. Everything reported/requested after that date will be considered for the next rollup package scheduled for July 2005. So if you have some issues or wishes for the next version of TULP2G, let us know soon!
