29 Stu: We did it! finally, we have 2.0.0. It's been a long time coming, | |
30 but there's a great deal of goodness here. When I say a long time, I'm | |
31 not kidding - it's been 972 days since we branched off "oldstatus" | |
32 (aka 1.x). The early Greeks were uncertain as to whether 2 was a | |
33 number at all (or if we'd ever make this release) - it has a beginning | |
34 and an end but no middle (much like our unfortunately quiet development | |
35 period). 2 is the first prime number and the only even prime. 2 is also | |
36 the first deficient number (oh well). There are only 10 types of people | |
37 in the world - those who like our new names and those who do not. | |
38 Enjoy! | |
