Jiffle version 0.2.1 released

Version 0.2.1 of the Jiffle image scripting language is now available from the Maven Central repository. This updates Jiffle to depend on JAITools version 1.3.0.

If you haven't met Jiffle yet, take a look at the user guide and some of the previous posts about the language such as Jiffle meets Mandelbrot and Jiffle plays the Game of Life.

The sources for this version can be retrieved from the Jiffle Git repository (see the releases branch and the 0.2.1 tag):

  git clone https://jiffle.googlecode.com/git

JAITools version 1.3.0 released

Version 1.3.0 of JAITools is now available from Maven Central. This is mainly a bug-fix release although a number of performance improvements have also been made (details below).

This is the first version since the project sources were moved to a Git repository. The new repository has a permanent releases branch and the sources for this release can be retrieved with the 1.3.0 tag. Subsequent hacking will happen on the master branch. Unlike the previous Subversion repository, there will not be a stable 1.3.x branch.

Thanks to Andrea, Daniele and Simone for their contributions and help.

JAITools and Jiffle sources moved to git

The subject says it all really... All the cool cats are using git so of course we had no choice. All of the sources for both projects have (I hope) made their way into new git repositories, still hosted at the Google Code sites.

For JAITools:

    git clone https://code.google.com/p/jaitools
For Jiffle:
    git clone https://code.google.com/p/jiffle
All branches and tags that were in the subversion repositories should be in the new git repositories along with the full source history.

For a limited time, the subversion repositories for both projects will still be available for read-only access, but once we are confident that nothing was lost in the move they will be removed.

Share and enjoy !
