[okfn-labs] Recline: major improvements over last month, new website and upcoming public v0.5 release

[Rufus Pollock]

Hi All,

There have been a large number of improvements to Recline in the last
month that I haven't had a chance to notify the list about. A lot of
this is summarized in the v0.4 changelog inlined below but some major
items are:

* Map support: <http://reclinejs.com/app/?url=demo&currentView=map#explorer>
* State support meaning that embedding and permalinking are now
possible (see share link at top right of app)

v0.5 is on its way and this will be the occasion, we hope, for a major
release announcement. Focus of v0.5  is:

* New dedicated website: <http://reclinejs.com/>
* Major documentation push
* Polishing of existing features
* More at <https://github.com/okfn/recline/issues?milestone=4>

Regards,

Rufus
