Sorry but you will need to give us another 2 weeks. The new release has lots of different features added for Jessie and we do need to test them before we can deliver. PiCtory as well as PiControl will have new features. Also issues under hard environmental conditions (EMV) with PiBridge will be fixed with the new release. The new release will also be running on CM3. We can't just isolate Jessie fom the rest of all these updated and new software parts and we need to be confident that every thing is running before releasing the new image.

Hi mario,
you can install the Node-RED runtime on the current Debian Wheezy.
You have to upgrade the RevPi via dist-upgrade first.
Follow these steps:
1. sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
2. npm: sudo apt-get install nodejs npm
3. Install Node-RED
a. wget
http://node-arm.herokuapp.com/node_archive_armhf.deb
b. sudo dpkg -i node_archive_armhf.deb
c. sudo apt-get install build-essential python-dev python-rpi.gpio
d. sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm node-red
Please create a backup of your RevPi before you upgrade the system!
