[osg-users] OpenSceneGraph-2.5.5 developer release tagged

[Robert Osfield]

Hi All,

I have just tagged the OpenSceneGraph-2.5.5 developer release.  Links
to downloads can be found on at:

    http://www.openscenegraph.org/projects/osg/wiki/Downloads/DeveloperReleases

Details:

* OpenSceneGraph-2.5.5, released on 17th July 2008.
OpenSceneGraph-2.5.5 has a major addition of Jeremy Moles' osgWidget
NodeKit? that adds scene graph based GUI support, this NodeKit is
still in development so please be patient with its feature
set/stability. Also added is osgDB::AuthenticationMap which can be
used to provide the libcurl based plugin with username and passwords
to use in http authentication, and an improved plugin query mechanism
has been added to osgDB to allow application to query supported file
formats and options available (use osgconv --plugins, and osgconv
--formats to lists the details). Also various bug and build fixes.

    source package : OpenSceneGraph-2.5.5.zip
    svn tag: svn co
http://www.openscenegraph.org/svn/osg/OpenSceneGraph/tags/OpenSceneGraph-2.5.5
OpenSceneGraph

My plan is to make just one further dev release before branching 2.6
for feature freeze and the release candidate series.   We are just one
week away from tagging 2.6 so please do as much testing as you can so
we can make sure it compiles and runs well across all platforms.

Many thanks to those who've contributed to putting 2.5.5 together.
Special thanks to Jeremy for osgWidget ;-)

Robert.
