Release Announcement

 

It's certainly been a while coming! Big milestone, though, for the project. Depending on your distro, it might be a while before 1.0 hits the repositories, so if you wish you can download manually.

I haven't looked into it that much to be honest, I don't generally rely on any Windows apps at home anymore, but I imagine it will be similar to previous releases if you've been keeping up to date.

 

Always worth looking through the AppDB and seeing if your favourite app is listed there.
