1.0? So which one have I been using?
0.8, 0.9, etc...
I'm just surprised that it's so new
new is a different concept from first api stable release. it's been in development since 2002. 0.21 was the most recent release, and the software has been pretty much usable since 2010 at least. but this 1.0 release is a big deal because it basically means any features you currently know and like can be expected to be there for forever. it's more of a promise than a time-based release measure
Ah thanks for the explanation. That makes a lot of sense. Because using Freecad it certainly doesn't feel new. Looks late 90s or early 2000s
