[Repast-developer] SimBuilder 1.0 released

[Nick C. <nic...@ve...>]

Hi,

SimBuilder (formerly Evolver) version 1.0 has been released. For those
of you that don't know SimBuilder is a rapid application development
environment for RePast simulations. The intention is that the user can
visually construct a simulation out of component pieces and specify the
behavior of that simulation using Not Quite Python, a subset of the
Python computer language.

Thanks to all who helped with this release especially Tom Howe for
developer support, David Sallach, Laszlo Gulyas and Rick Riolo for their
helpful comments way back when. Special thanks to John Padgett and
Doowan Lee's modeling and complexity class for serving as unwitting
guinea pigs over the last month or so. 

You can get zip and tar.gz archive manual install versions from here:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1703

with automatic installer versions to follow soon. 

The help has really been improved in this version over the last with the
introduction of on-line help and a fairly complete component reference.
Comments and suggestions for improvements are greatly appreciated.

Nick
