== Development News: GeoGebra 4.2 Beta 
   - GeoGebra 4.2 Beta<http://wiki.geogebra.org/en/Release_Notes_GeoGebra_4.2> now has a Barcode Command so that you can encode and decode barcodes and QR codes <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_code> 
   - You can now connect a Kinect to GeoGebra 4.2 Beta<http://www.geogebra.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=25426> and get real-time 3D coordinates of a skeleton in GeoGebra (Windows only, testers needed for OSX and Ubuntu)
