This release is a milestone for the HyperGet Development Team, despite being the first. Since the project's conception over one and a half years ago, HyperGet has been through much trouble - developers disappearing (resulting in the project's hibernation for more than 10 months), questionable programming implementations and more. However, it is with great pleasure that I announce the 0.1 release of HyperGet. This is a stable release with limited functionality: it will allow users to download packages to be installed on an offline Debian-based computer on an internet-enabled computer using just the Synaptic Package Manager and HyperGet. There are plans to implement features such as updating the offline system using HyperGet through collaboration with the Synaptic team in the near future. For now, enjoy the ability to install new software easily on offline Debian-based Linux distributions (such as Ubuntu and MEPIS)!
