We announce the immediate availability of Servoy 3.5 Beta 3
NOTE: this is PRE-RELEASE SOFTWARE, use with caution and make BACKUPS before you start.
This version is available through the download page on the Servoy website (developer section).
Because of our move to Tomcat 6, you will need to do a full install for this beta. We plan to have the auto updater working again for future releases.
