Is boa-constructor dead?

[Mark Carter]

I noticed that boa-constructor has been stuck at 0.2.3 for a long time
now. Is it dead?

Nope, it just doesn't release very often on the front page, where one would
normally expect releases to appear . There is activity on CVS. There is
also a - not very well publicized - 0.2.8 zip/tarball somewhere in the
forums if I'm not mistaken. I just can't find it right now.

Version 0.2.8 works well. It is not completely bug free, but it is a
powerful tool.
