The UmTRX project has a new website and over the coming months we’ll be adding resources here such as user documentation and how-to guides. However, in the meantime, the primary source of information remains the Google code wiki.

We’ll also be using this blog to provide regular updates from the project, and you can expect posts with technical insights and exploring new features, along with reports from UmTRX use in the field, and posts on wider relevant topics.

To stay up to date you can subscribe to the RSS feed, or follow the project on Twitter,  Google Plus or LinkedIn.
