Hi,
Thought that would be good to share the news with everyone: today
Chandler Desktop Preview has been released! Whohoo!
This is version 0.7.0.*1*! 0.7.0 was built and posted Friday and that
was enough time for Robin Cottiss to find a bug worth fixing. Thanks
Robin! :) You're the proof that making releases available early to end
users is worthwhile :)
A lot of thanks for *all* helping to push that baby out the door: devs,
QA, dogfooders and, of course, daring early adopters who pushed us to
fix bugs in every corners of the application. Thanks a lot!
Here under is a copy of the post I put on OSAF Blog and sent to @announce.
Cheers,
- Philippe
