[Conzilla-devel] Conzilla 2.2 released

[Hannes E. <he...@cs...>]

The Conzilla team is proud to announce the release of Conzilla 2.2 [1].

This is a usability release for improving the user experience and making
it easier to perform collaborative conceptual modeling.

The major improvements since version 2.1 are:

  * Undo/redo functionality in edit mode.
  * Advanced logging for improved user feedback.
  * Improved "Offline mode".
  * Keyboard shortcuts for most important editing actions.
  * Various improvements for editing single concepts and their
    relations to context-maps and sessions.
  * Context-Map metadata files (.ccm) and associated mime-type for
    easy opening of context-maps.
  * Support for importing collaboration settings from files, makes
    initial installation easier.
  * Announcements to the Sindice semantic indexer [2] when publishing
    context-maps or contributions.
  * "Source view" for viewing a context-map in RDF.
  * Multi-threaded loading of context-maps resulting in smoother
    surfing.
  * Various improvements in the session manager.
  * New status bar with information on context-maps.
  * Splash screen with progress bar when starting Conzilla.

  ... and many more bugfixes and new features, see the automatically
      generated change log of our bugtracker [3] for details!

Conzilla 2.2 requires a Java Runtime Environment in version 1.5 or newer
and can be installed via the download [4] page. If you already have an
installation of Conzilla 2.1 it should be sufficient to launch Conzilla
via the shortcuts. Java Web Start will then take care of the upgrade.

If you have comments or suggestions you can send them directly to the
Conzilla mailing lists [5].

Best regards,
