Hello everyone,
the GeoGig team is thrilled to announce the release of geogig 1.0-RC3,
We're planning for a final 1.0 by the end of the year, and most probably
a fourth release candidate before that.
Here are the release notes.
Best regards,
Gabriel.
GeoGig 1.0-RC3 Release Notes
============================
August 4, 2016.
These are the release notes for the third GeoGig release candidate.
We have worked hard since RC2 on fixing the last outstanding bugs that prevented
a solid release, and focused on some performance improvements.
This release is also the official launch of the PostgreSQL storage backend [1],
which allows to store several repositories in a single postgres database.
Also, the GeoServer plugin is being released for GeoServer 2.8, 2.9, and 2.10 series,
with several improvements both on GUI [2] and REST [3] configuration.
The next steps are a strong focus on performance and scalability and a final
1.0 release by the end of the year. Stay tuned and write us back with your
feedback about this important milestone.
