jerome, Friday 22 July 2005 20:59:20 PST

The elves in the LightPress factory have been working overtime since the last beta, so we are very pleased to announce the release of version 1.1.0-RC1. Fred, the newest member of our development team, was instrumental in buffing this release to a polished shine.

What's new in RC1:

  • A built-in caching feature (see Ludo's post on speed comparisons) which can be activated from the plugin pages

  • Improved integration into the WP interface

  • PostMeta plugin which auto-populates template tags using post meta data

  • A regression testing framework and our first test suite, "Fred" (not part of the download)

  • Minor bug fixes

The rather long Changelog is copied below can be viewed here.

    I'm beginning to question how useful it is to post the changelog..

    For those who are curious, Fred is the equivalent of 422,835 monkeys banging on 422,835 keyboards. Or something like that.

    This one is indeed very long. I always find it useful to the details of a new release, and whether it makes upgrading urgent by fixing srious bugs. Maybe we can limit ourselves to a link to the SF ChangeLog.
