Version 1.50 has been released.
This should fix the miner getting stuck idle. I added a workaround for now since I am not 100% confident that I fixed the underlying problem.
Changes:
1. Fixed long poll crashing when the server disconnects the miner with a message
2. Fixed QueueReader error when stopping the kernel
3. Several RPC protocol changes to reduce occurrence of idle miner problem
4. When idle the miner will now request more work every 15 seconds (this should eliminate idling in cases where the connection isn't lost)
5. LP now works in cases where the URL uses a query string (thanks to error for the patch, see page 30 for details)
