I’d like to take a moment to look back at what we’ve done, where we are, and where we are headed. Version 6 I believe that we’ve been able to ‘right the ship’ so to speak. After years of no releases, we were able to bring version 6 to market, correct a number of outstanding issues and bugs, get the new Java-based studio up and running and support our customers’ legacy applications. We are happy to see so many customers continuing to use the platform and updating their environments to the latest versions. Version 6.1 brought with it a new name and updates that helped with stability and performance. And version 6.2 has continued to correct issues and improve stability. We are readying version 6.2.3 which is expected be the final release of version 6, containing bug fixes and performance improvements. Overall version 6 has met the goal of bringing the platform up to date. Version 7 We’ve been working on version 7 since July. There are several major improvements in version 7, most notable are a new SQL generator that supports ANSI joins and other SQL syntax improvements. The server will now be available as a 64-bit service. We’ll also be bringing back the configuration tool and restoring the @XSLT tag. We anticipate running a beta for version 7 during January with release of 7.0.1 in early February 2013. Version 7 is planned to have a similar support cycle as version 6, with incremental releases taking place through 2013 and 2014. We hope everyone will give v7 a try and consider upgrading. It’ll be the best version of the platform ever released. The Future Over the past 2 years, technology trends have surfaced that are making us consider TeraScript in a new perspective. Some of these trends are browser-based applications and HTML 5; the rise of Facebook, WordPress and other web platforms; web focused frameworks like Ruby on Rails and an increased focus on mobile and touch interfaces. TeraScript has some unique ideas, the drag and drop programming model, the tag (TML) language, the concept of separating the database from the application logic. We are now looking to take these strengths and improve upon them - to move the product into the era of Windows 8, iOS, tablets and the cloud. I can say that we’re not going to give up on the traditional model. TeraScript 8 will run your TAFs, install on your hardware and have an IDE. But it will also install into the cloud, use embedded databases, execute custom actions and allow for both modern programming semantics and very high level drag and drop scripting. We are also planning to implement an HTML framework directly into the platform complete with a rich data storage mechanism. It’s impossible to say at this junction what the final product will look like and when it’ll be ready for release. But I hope all of you will participate in our preview releases when the time comes and help us shape the future of the TeraScript product and platform. Thank you for your continued support over the past 2 years.
