[Colander-users] Development Release 0.5.0

[Craig R. <cro...@us...>]

This is an unstable release which should function correctly, but may have 
some bugs and rough edges. Also, it doesn't have up-to-date documentation 
like the stable releases.

This release is an overhaul of the API to make the application thread 
safe.  There are also other bug fixes and code cleanups as detailed in 
the release notes on the download page.

Colander is a Java application which acts as a scripted personal Internet 
agent (performance of arbitrary scripted tasks through the provided 
framework.) Access is possible through a standard web browser.

Colander is in a usable state. It is listed as alpha software due to 
changes that may yet occur in the interface and API. Having had the 
opportunity to use Colander for awhile, development is now focusing on 
defining and stabilizing the core API. Once that is achieved, the project 
will be declared to be in beta. Input is welcome.
