Hi everybody.
I am glad to announce Cayenne 1.0 final release. Yes, we did it!!!
Thanks to everybody involved in this lengthy and sometimes painful
process. This includes current and former Cayenne committers, early
adopters, current users, and graphic designers.
I will be posting announcements in a few other places. Below is a
suggested text of such announcement. Comments and corrections are
welcomed.
Thanks.
Andrus
P.S. I am ready to have a beer to celebrate the occasion. Unfortunately
since most of the parties involved live in different cities and on
different continents, we can only have a virtual launch party. Cheers
anyway :-)
