Hey @cory.quammen, I’m really excited to check this out. Although I’m not seeing 5.9 options on the download/nightly pages? Is it hidden somewhere I’m just not seeing?

@mconti You may need to do a hard refresh on the downloads page. Usually this involves holding down the shift key while reloading - Ctrl-Shift-R in Chrome, for instance.

That did it. I did not know about that feature before. Thanks Cory

Fixing the signed binaries requires an update to the source code. We will provide signed binaries in ParaView 5.9.0-RC2.
