From a.ghisla at gmail.com Thu May 14 10:37:12 2009 From: a.ghisla at gmail.com (Anne Ghisla) Date: Thu, 14 May 2009 10:37:12 +0200 Subject: [Freegis-list] Announcing the release of QGIS 1.0.2 (stable release) and 1.1.0 'Pan' (unstable release) Message-ID: <4A0BD838.4050605@gmail.com> We are very pleased to simultaneously announce the releases of QGIS 1.0.2 (stable release) and QGIS 1.1.0 'Pan' (unstable release). Our 1.0.x 'stable' release series are part of our effort to provide a stable, unchanging, long term supported environment. Each minor release in our stable series contains only bug fixes and no new features. For a list of bugs that were closed in the 1.0.2 release, please see the 1.0.2 release milestone. Our 'unstable' release series are provided to offer users a chance to try out new features as they make their way into the code base. We will not support these releases over a long term and they are aimed more for those who value new features over stability. Binary and source code packages are available at http://www.qgis.org/en/download/binaries.html. A visual changelog for the release is available here: http://blog.qgis.org/node/134 Along with the release of QGIS 1.1.0, the QGIS Community Team is also extremely pleased to announce the immediate availability of the QGIS Users' Guide version 1.1. The guide can be downloaded from http://www.qgis.org/en/documentation/manuals.html. QGIS is a completely volunteer driven project, and is the work of a dedicated team of developers, documenters and supporters. We extend our thanks and gratitude for the many, many hours people have contributed to make this release happen. If you would like to make a donation or sponsor our project, please visit http://www.qgis.org/en/sponsorship.html . QGIS is Free software and you are under no obligation to do so.
