Alongside Open Clip Art Library 2.6

For immediate release:

October 14, 2010 UTC –

Aiki Framework has been rapidly gaining ground in 2010, and that
progress is highlighted in the latest Official Release of the open
source software: Version 0.5.  Developer, Bassel Safadi
(http://bassel.ws) has logged an impressive list of revisions and
fixes in his latest iteration.  Highlights of the new release allow
for more secure and stable installations.  The administration panel
has seen the benefit of Event Listeners logging changes made and more
intuitive and real-time widget modification.  File handling is also
becoming friendlier, as ZIP files can now be uploaded to a server,
stored, and unzipped, all through Aiki Framework 0.5.  For users
interested in where Aiki Framework is headed next, a Roadmap exist and
is being consistently updated
(http://www.aikiframework.org/wiki/Roadmap).

The Open Clip Art Library (http://openclipart.org) team continues it's
push for a more intuitive and Community-driven package, with the
Official Release of Open Clip Art Library 2.6.  October's new release
is marked by over 35,000 images created and remixed by a Community of
artists that remains increasingly numerous.  September's registrants
added over 1,500 new users to OCAL's user base, which now totals over
68,000.  Site stats like these have grown exponentially since the
Librarians renewed mission began with this Spring's release of Open
Clip Art Library 2.0.

Community-centric features now serve as a central focus for OCAL
Developers.  Visitors to Open Clip Art Library's Participation page
(http://openclipart.org/participate) will find a new "Community Help"
Section that pulls in the top 10 most important "user-requested"
features from OCAL's Launchpad Blueprint
(https://launchpad.net/openclipart).  This section is a gateway for
those in the Community who are passionate about Open Clip Art
Library's purpose and would like to help make it better.  All users
are invited to contribute to future OCAL Releases via feature
requests, bug reports, and coding.  Another highly requested feature
is also making it's return to Open Clip Art: Profile Management.  A
special thanks to [http://www.openclipart.org/user-detail/cgbug cgbug]
for getting this feature back into the mix.  Once logged into their
OCAL profile page, users can now select "Edit Profile" from the right
sidebar and edit personal information, including adding a custom
Avatar.

Halloween is in the spotlight this month, and it's only right that
Open Clip Art 2.6 celebrate by delivering yet another content-drenched
themed Clip Art Package.  September's Fall 2010 Theme pales in
comparison to the 160+ images users can expect to receive as they
download the latest addition to OCAL's Themed Sets.

More information on these and other events involved in the progression
of Open Clip Art Library can be found via the project Roadmap
(http://www.openclipart.org/wiki/Roadmap).
