Hi Harry, you are right that parts of the article are not overly specific or accurate. I think the normal readers of futurezone.orf.at are no specialists in photography or even panoramas but are somehow interested in "free software". I know this is no excuse to write incorrect "facts". I only had a quick look at the article on Friday and I stumbled over futurezone only by chance. At least hugin is mentioned in a positive context as I think, maybe he should ask on this list when he needs proofreaders...
That "Version 2" was mentioned before somewhere and I have no clue how people come to such a conclusion when they never had a version 1. Thomas Bredenfeld is a member of Panotools NG and I don't think negative about him. He also was at the Lucerne/Zermatt panotools meeting, you can easily find several photos he posted on flickr, search for zermatt+panotools. BTW the 2010 panotools meeting will be in Plymouth, UK. http://panotools-meeting.com/ Carl Harry van der Wolf wrote: > > 2009/10/9 Carl von Einem > <http://futurezone.orf.at/stories/1628944/> > > When he writes about "montagesoftware" to create Gigapixel panos he says > : "Die ist sogar gratis zu haben, etwa beim Open-Source-Projekt Hugin, > das erst am 29.

I suppose he means 2009.2.0 but he's not very accurate. > I think we should be glad for the publication, but what do you mean > with: "Oh, I just see that it's an article by Thomas Bredenfeld :-)". > > I know him because he asked me in April if he could add ImageFuser to > the DVD of his new book.
