Today we released a new version of Hibernate Spatial: release 1.0-M2. This will probably be the last milestone release for the definitive release 1.0. More information is on the download page.
Recently I was invited to the CASCADOSS symposium to give my views on open source business models, specifically in the GIS market. For the presentation I developed some themes that might be of interest to others working on open source and/or GIS. I therefore decided to (finally) start putting this blog to some good use by publishing a series of posts that elaborate these themes. This is the first installment.
The Hibernate Spatial project has its own home: hibernatespatial.org.
The documentation site and code repositories have been moved from the CaDriE/MAJAS site, and the packages have been renamed from "com.cadrie.hibernate.spatial" to the somewhat more elegant "org.hibernatespatial".
