As the holiday season approaches, so does the next release of ZFN. I'd like to talk about the future of ZFN and what's in store. Read on for more details.
It's been an interesting year for me. From proof-of-concept to release, it's been a great experience. First of all, I would like to thank everyone who has downloaded ZFN and used it. I know it's still far from finished, but I hope that it will reach it's potential soon. Most of the delay in implementing features comes from my desire to keep the software as bug-free as possible. Sometimes that takes a while. I am glad that even with this, at least fifty people have downloaded ZFN 0.2. Thank you!
I am furiously working on the ZFN 0.3 series at the moment, which I think is one of the most ambitious releases I have attempted. The focus is on adding user accounts and permissions to ZFN, a feature that I have always wanted and has been requested from my testers. I will probably release the first alpha of ZFN 0.3 within a few weeks.
If anyone wants to join ZFN, I think that the development process has somewhat stabilized as I have worked with Launchpad. Feel free to contact me at rlight2 at gmail dot com if you want to help.
