Welcome to the new web site! The goal of the site was to keep it as simple as possible for easy maintence, but to also create something a bit more modern and stylish. It uses a very simple PHP script and a CSS style sheet. The site was developed by Steve Rawlinson.
Fusion Tool - Major Update
November 6, 2005
Mario Beauchamp writes "This is to announce a major revision of my fusion tool for OpenEV. However, I don't really have time now to fully test it so I'm hoping those interested in this tool will give it a real try out and report any bug encountered :)
You can find it at the usual place: http://pages.infinit.net/starged/openev/index.htm"
FWTools 0.9.9 Released
August 15, 2005
The FWTools 0.9.9 release is now available. FWTools is a packaged build including recent snapshots of OpenEV, MapServer, GDAL, PROJ.4 and a variety of underlying packages. It aims to be "cutting edge" with recent developments and also to include as many optional formats as practical. It also includes a complete Python instance, and python binding support for GDAL and MapServer.
It should work smoothly on Windows, and most 32bit Intel Linux platforms regardless of native packaging system.
