Status

Terraform is free software, written by Robert Gasch and David Bartold (with occasional help from others) in our spare time. As such, there are no guarantees and certainly no set schedule. However, here is a short status overview and something that might be called a developent roadmap. Even if for some reason it seems like there might be some kind of development plan/schedule, there are no guarantees as to when (or even if) a feature will be implemented.

Due to the demands placed upon us by school, work, hobbies and life in general, progress has been a bit slow during most of 2001. Having lamented this state of affairs, please realize that under the covers much good work was done: the conversion of the original C++ code base to C is complete and the source code has been cleaned of much cruft that it had accumulated over the years. The fact that we are now using Glade to generate the GUI code should reduce the amount of tedious coding required to make user interface changes. Together with the switch to C, this will hopefully make development more enticing and accessible to a larger group of (portential) contributors.

Over the last few weeks we've seen good progress in fixing minor bugs and rounding out the current functionality. We are hoping to continue at this pace for another while which will then hopefully bring us to version 1.0.
