ANNOUNCE: InstallJammer Multiplatform Installer, version 1.2b1
The InstallJammer Team is pleased to announce the release
of InstallJammer 1.2 beta 1!
This is a beta release of the new 1.2 branch. It includes
lots of bug fixes and new enhancements. This should be a
fairly short beta cycle, so I'm hoping for only a single
beta release before final. Please test thoroughly.
