Metawidget v1.0 Released!

Metawidget v1.0 is now available! Representing the culmination of two and a half years of careful incremental releases, we're proud to announce this final 1.0 release of the industry's most practical User Interface generator.

The past 30 months have been an exciting ride. We've paid close attention to your feedback, conducted detailed interviews and case studies, and assisted over a dozen production deployments. We've seen Metawidget deployed at energy companies, by governments, in pharmaceutical labs, for ERP, for light and sound engineering, for telecommunications, and more.

We've worked closely with key industry players and developed strong ties with the academic community - publishing conference papers and journal articles, and fostering relationships with other research teams.

We'd like to thank everyone for their support in getting us this far. And now that we're 1.0, there's never been a better time to dive in and see what Metawidget can do for you! It's mature, it's Open Source, and it's ready to save you from all that error-prone, laborious, boilerplate UI code!

This release was focused on:

* Improved JSF support (binding attribute)
* Refactored HiddenFieldProcessor for JSP, Struts and Spring
* Improved JPA support (can now hide transient fields)
* Refactoring, bug fixes, unit tests; and
* Lots of documentation!

Special thanks to Gérard Collin and Ian Darwin for their help with this release!

Your continued feedback is invaluable to us. Please download it and let us know what you think.
