And eventually posting this mail, as the official release > starting point :) GREAT! I think the text is OK. There are some small language errors, but who cares? About: "the Jallib Team": You see this kind of term used everywhere. It sounds good, but I hate it when I cannot find who are behind that name (and I suspect that frequently it is only one person)! So I suggest to keep the term Jallib Team, but add an URL to it which opens a list of participants for those who insist to know ;-) Suggestions for some textual changes inline below: > ----- > Hi all, > > > We are proud to announce the very first beta release of Jallib.
