Granular 1.0 RC release

Posted Sun, 06/29/2008 - 09:16 by Anurag Bhandari

It is my pleasure to announce the availability of Granular 1.0 RC, the last development release before the final Granular 1.0. This release is more stable, user-friendly, usable, and more fun to use. Quite some bugs have been fixed, improvements made, updates done; thanks to your constant feedback on the previous release (Granular 1.0 Preview).

Granular 1.0 will be the most ambitious release for the Granular Project, and this release is just another step in that direction.

I want to thank all the developers and contributors in Team Granular and all the members of Granular Community Forums who helped achieve this release.

Announcing Esto Vox, the next Granular release

Posted Mon, 03/03/2008 - 15:00 by Anurag Bhandari

Team Granular is pleased to announce that the codename for the upcoming release of Granular has been decided. The codename was suggested by one of our Community Forums staff members, Aquafire, and was agreed upon by the others (forum staff members).

The codename for the next Granular release, Granular 1.0, is Esto Vox. Esto Vox means "Let us speak (together)". Just as a reminder, in case you don't know, the codename for the last Granular version, Granular 0.90, was Esto Vello. So, we are continuing the Esto series with the same "V" alphabet next to "Esto".
