Hi TaskJuggler Users!

I'm happy to announce the release of TaskJuggler III 0.0.11. This may
be the last release of the TJ3 initial alpha series. I think it is
time now to expose TJ3 to a wider audience. If all goes well, we'll
start a series of beta releases to polish the TJ3 syntax. Hopefully,
the boarder user base will then help us to remove the last issues with
the TJ3 syntax. I'd like to release the first stable TJ3 release some
time later this year.

TaskJuggler 0.0.11 comes with a bunch of new features but probably
even more bug fixes. Thanks to everyone who reported issues!

If you missed it, TaskJuggler is now using GitHub:
https://github.com/taskjuggler/TaskJuggler. Feel free to check it out,
watch it or even fork it.

Important Note

When posting to the TJ mailing lists, please send regular emails to
the corresponding list email addresses listed on the page. Try to
avoid using the Google Groups web front-end as it does not support
attachments. Example projects should always be attached and not pasted
into the email to prevent them from getting corrupted by line breaks
and other formatting corruption that Gmail and MTAs like MS Exchange
apply to the mail body.
