Spong / News: Recent posts

Due to missing doc files the installer for beta 1 aborted. This and a few other minor things are fixed now.

After a long period of silence a new version of Spong is under development. Please try the beta and give feedback on the mailinglist !

I'll be assisting in the management of the Spong development from this point forward. I'm now working with Stephen to try to bring the development I've been doing and the current CVS into sync and to make it available publicly.

Your continued support and contributions will be greatly appreciated.
