Gambas 1.0 Released
===================

   The first stable version of Gambas has been released
[http://gambas.sourceforge.net/].  Gambas is a Visual Basic like
development environment (screenshots
[http://gambas.sourceforge.net/screenshots.html]) where the programmes
are cross-platform single executable files that can be deployed in a
manner reminiscent of Java. The platform is in fact powerful enough that
the IDE itself is written in Gambas.  For a brief introduction try this
OSNews article regarding Gambas
[http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=8849] or the Gambas Wiki
[http://www.binara.com/gambas-wiki/bin/view/Gambas/WebHome]. Gambas
currently integrates with the KDE desktop environment by supporting Qt
at the graphical component level as well as enabling DCOP interaction at
the desktop level.

     Also note that the author Benoit Minisini will be speaking at
FOSDEM [http://www.fosdem.org/index/speakers/speakers_minisini] and will
accordingly be interviewed.  If you have questions for him, please feel
free to send them to fosdem at gmail.com.
