We just released the next version of Tango, 0.99.1, which is mostly a bugfix release. To the Tango team, events surrounding it are encouraging though, as they show that Tango gains more users and more compatible libraries.

In addition to the compression stream filters by Daniel Keep, many of the bugfixes in this release, were due to patches and suggestions by users. As such, one bug in the collections package was reported 4 times over a few weeks in August!

In the compatible libraries arena, there seems to be quite a few people interested in various aspects of web development. Wombat has already been around for a time, and lately we heard about two other we frameworks built on top of Tango, Sendero and Snoyweb.

Also very interesting, is Carlos' fbd, a library for interaction with Facebook, to make sure D is up there in the world of social networking :)

And yesterday, Clay announced that ArcLib has gone Tango only.

I also expect several exciting things to happen around and with Tango over the next few months, both previously announced and un-announced.
