Compiz Fusion, our first release. 0.5.2
This is it. The news you have all been waiting for…
Compiz Fusion Release 0.5.2 is out!
Compiz Fusion is the result of a merge between the Compiz community plugin set “Compiz Extras” and the window manager core independent parts of the “Beryl” project. Both Compiz Extras and Beryl have left important marks on in how we look at Window management, and with the merge, you no longer have to choose which one to use. The release marks a milestone as our first release and six months since the last release of Beryl.
We now have a composite window manager that is stable and more feature-packed than ever before. The community and developers have spent countless hours working on and improving the Compiz core, plugins, the configuration system, the configuration application and artwork.
