Today we have released AspectWerkz 1.0 RC3.
This release is very close to the 1.0 final, and comes with several bug fixes that occured in RC1 and some packaging issue in RC2.
We plan to release the 1.0 final soon - at most within the next 2 weeks. There won't be any new features added to the 1.0 final as compared to this one, so you can consider it as final quality.
The source for this release is now in a branch named branch_1_0 since we are using CVS head for something we should announce soon with more details.

Thanks to all of you who provide feedback and bug reports.
