Hi folx, its unbelievable, but the SAGA saga seems to come to an end, finally: version one of the Core API specification has been submitted back to the OGF editor, and should await publication now. I hope this sweetens your look-back to 2007 which you will, w/o any doubt, enjoy today. (Well, for SAGA you could also look back to 2006, 2005, and some more... ;-) So, big thanks to all contributors, editors, criticists, and supportes of the spec! Please note that comments and error reports are continued to be wolcome, but will result in erratas to the spec, instead of direct fixes. Also, please note that the phrase 'final bug' is from now on forbidden on this list - there is no such thing! ;-) The final spec is linked at the bottom of the SAGA-RG wiki at SF: http://forge.ogf.org/sf/projects/saga-rg direct link: http://forge.ogf.org/short/saga-core-wg/saga-core-v1 Best wishes, and Seasons Greetings, Andre. PS.: of course you know 'Hogfather' from Terry Prattchet, don't you? HO. HO. HO. -- No trees were destroyed in the sending of this message, however, a significant number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.
