Factor 0.85 released

Thursday, October 19, 2006

Factor 0.85 is now available. Check out the change log. Thanks to Doug Coleman for the Windows package and Alex Chapman for the Mac OS X Intel package.

Chris Double found a silly regression: the contrib/furnace module does not load. Now this module is not very useful yet, but nevertheless, I did ensure that all modules load before releasing 0.85, then went ahead and made some changes to Furnace without testing if they load in a fresh image. How foolish. Anyway if you feel like taking a look at the new incomplete web framework, you should use the latest code from the Darcs repository instead.
