[TYPO3-announce] FLOW3 1.0.0 alpha 3 has been released (with a Getting Started tutorial!)

[Robert Lemke]

Dear TYPO3 community,

the FLOW3 Core Team is proud to announce the third alpha release of  
FLOW3 and a brand new tutorial!

With a two weeks delay we are nonetheless delighted to release FLOW3  
1.0.0 alpha 3 along with the first version of our Getting Started  
Tutorial.
FLOW3 1.0.0 alpha 3 can be downloaded via http://flow3.typo3.org/download

What's New?

The main focus for alpha 3 was clearly the making of a tutorial.  
FLOW3's feature set therefore pretty much followed what was necessary  
to get a smooth first-timer's experience while walking through the  
tutorial. With more than 200 new features, bugfixes and smaller  
improvements this release is clearly a big leap towards a more stable  
code base.

Next Release

FLOW3 1.0.0 alpha 4 is scheduled for the 8th of September 2009.  
Besides our preparation for T3CON09, our main field of interest will  
be speeding up FLOW3 and further stabilizing the existing features.
