Re: [ecf-dev] ECF 3.5 Release Presentation - Please Review

[Wim Jongman <wim.jongman@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Sebastian,

Can you please send the powerpoint and the text file as an attachement to this list. This will make it easier for people to read the content. Especially when they do not have the git repo cloned.

Thanks,

Wim

Hi all,

Scott, thank you for the review. I added your changes to the document.

I also commited a first draft of the New and Noteworthy page. It
mainly consists of the information from the slides. Please review this
page, too. As it's a text-based file, feel free to commit changes
directly. You may also give feedback at the list and I'll help to
complete the information.

Cheers,

Sebastian
