Upcoming Release
Development of Mira Groupware is proceeding very smoothly indeed, and I’m sure you’ll be pleased to hear that we are well on our way to publishing our first release of Mira! Although this release will be purely developmental (for testing purposes), and should be considered “pre-alpha”, it will give you a good insight into the future of this application. On the upside, this version will boast a lot more features than we had originally intended for our first release: it will even include an instant messaging tool, a functional Utility framework and a working Files Utility (which will allow users to share files in Workplaces). Not a bad effort for a first release, right?
The latest progress has been made on the Utility framework by our eternally diligent lead developer, Alan. Although it may not look like much at the moment, a lot of blood, sweat (and code) went into producing the first version of the Files Utility and its underlying framework, as shown in the screenshot below:
If you want to follow Alan’s work, please see the Utilities branch on Launchpad or visit his blog. For more information about our upcoming release, keep checking back regularly — we’re hoping to release Mira 0.1 between February 1st and February 8th, so stay tuned!
