New Release
by FLASH Code Team - Jun 14th 2002 23:59:12
With FLASH2.2, we're hoping to move to a more regular release schedule,
with patches everytime something major improves.
News will always be posted to the FLASH-USERS mailing list that you'll
have the option of being subscribed to when you register for the software;
we'll also keep the freshmeat info up-to-date. Comments and questions
should go to the mailing lists.
