A hugin-2009.2.0_beta2 (beta release 2) tarball is available here:
<https://sourceforge.net/projects/hugin/files/hugin-2009.2_beta/hugin-2009.2.0_beta2.tar.gz/download>
This is the first publicly announced beta release in the new development
cycle (beta1 was a test run of the release process).
This is a beta release, i.e. it may not work for you. The current Hugin
2009.2 release codeline is reported to work on Linux, Windows and OS
X, however some experimental functionalities may not work and the final
release is likely to have further bugfixes and minor feature enhancements.
In particular, most translations haven't been updated since 0.8.0, so
this release isn't fully internationalised yet. With the new release
process it is possible for the final version to be released without
updated translations. Updated translations that don't make the cut will
be used in future releases.
Major changes since 0.8.0:
* GPU accelerated stitching. Highly experimental, reported not to work
in most cases. Activate from Files -> Preferences -> Stitching
* Improved Preferences panel (Control Point Detectors)
* Improved control of stitching process (Stitcher tab, choice of fusing
before stitching or stitching before fusing)
* Lots of bugfixes, lots of new bugs
See README, ChangeLog and INSTALL_cmake for more information.
