POSIT 0.5 Alpha released

Today marks the start of a few things for POSIT along with the start of actually assigning version numbers to POSIT.

  • Movement to a new repository that reflects the long term goals of POSIT better
    • The code repository has now been moved from http://code.google.com/p/posit-android to http://code.google.com/p/posit-mobile
    • This move isn't supposed to diminish our involvement with Android. In fact, we don't even have any other platforms yet. However, we don't want to potentially infringe on Google's trademark/copyright by tagging -android to our project name. We felt doing it early enough in project's life would make things easier. So, posit-mobile it is.
  • Release of 0.5
    • The number 0.5 was chosen to reflect the maturity of the project and somewhat the age/iterations
    • To provide a specific milestone/set of features to work/discuss on than revision numbers/branches that we'd been using
