Aloha,
We have made some updates to the Autodesk Maya Jobtype, and are happy to release it as version 4.0-9,
for the MacOS X and Linux platforms. The Microsoft Windows platform port was released earlier.
We have officially added support for Maya v8 in this release, added a few error-checking for
file I/O, and have fixed a few bugs.

@RELEASE: 4.0-9 (2006-09-19)
@IMPORTANT:
Please read the README.txt file for the latest important information
regarding the installation and use of this package.
@SUMMARY:
This release includes support for Maya 8.0 (32-bit only).
Otherwise, this is a maintenance release, including better
error-checking on I/O directories, and a more robust mechanism
to find the executable in the back-end.
@FEATURE: Maya 8.0 (32-bit) support
Support for Maya 8.0 has been added. This time, however, it is only
for the 32-bit port. The 64-bit version is on its way.
@FEATURE: Better I/O error-checking
The back-end code now checks for read/write permissions on the
input scenefile and output directory.
@FEATURE: Better support for Maya installed in non-default location
The back-end code now supports a more robust mechanism of searching
for the mayabatch.exe program. It searches the $PATH first, then
the paths specified in the windows registry, and then the default
installation locations.
@CHANGE: Internal code cleanup
Some internal cleanup of code has been done, for better maintainability.
