That's right, Fuel v1.0 is now officially available.  It has been 9 months in the making, and what a great 9 months it has been.  There has been a LOT of work that has culminated in 24,155 lines of goodness.

It has been a little while (just over a month), but version 1.0 RC3 has been tagged and is ready for download.  This version fixes a lot of issues found in the previous release.  In total there have been 467 commits since RC2, so we have been hard at work.

This afternoon we were notified of a security issue with the Fuel Core.  We located and fixed a security issue.

This issue had to do with the URI not being properly sanitized, which caused a security issue in certain situations.

We have released RC2.1 and suggest that you upgrade immediately.

The day the whole Fuel community has been waiting for is finally here. Only 4 months after its conception, Fuel RC1 is now released and ready to use! We're as excited about the RC1 as we will be about hitting v1.0, maybe even more so. Why? Because RC1 means that as far as we know it's all good. It means Fuel is ready to use and is approaching stability.

We have made a little change in plans...but in a good way!  We have gotten a lot of questions about when Fuel will be stable.  I have always responded with "soon" or "in a few weeks."  This was because we were unsure of what was left to do.  Well, now we have figured that all out and I have some exciting news.

After two months of active development we have released Fuel as an early beta. While Fuel is still not production ready we feel it is ready for people to start using it so they can review the framework, provide feedback before v1.0.0 and get a feel for how everything works. The team have made several applications with the framework and it's working well for us, why not give it a try?
