MODERATORS
1.0 has not been released yet. Maybe it'll happen this week, but as of this moment, RC4 is available but the actual release does not yet exist. Don't know why people keep posting and up voting incorrect and easily verifiable information.
Having said that, the release candidates have been great and this will be a great milestone for FreeCAD.
The release page and the download page say 1.0 was release on November 18.
And the commit to remove the RC4 suffix was merged yesterday as well.
Curious. It is imminent, yes, but as of right this moment the download page for me still shows 0.21.2 https://www.freecad.org/downloads.php and release notes go to https://wiki.freecad.org/Release_notes_0.21 and the blog is not updated.
Perhaps it's an edge cache update that hasn't happened yet?
Regardless, it's happening very soon and this is a great thing!
Looks like the builds just finished.
I guess the main website hasn't been updated but the link in the post is the release notes for 1.0
The FreeCAD GitHub page also confirms that, again as of now, 1.0 release is not yet out.
