[Hartmut Goebel]

On behalf of the Tryton team I'm proud to announce Tryton 1.0,
an Open Source application platform and ERP. It provides modularity, 
scalability and security.

This is the first release of Tryton, a fork of OpenERP (formally known 
as TinyERP). This release is the result of 8 months of intensive work 
which consist of the rewrite of all modules (including contact, sale, 
purchase, invoice, analytic and general account and inventory 
management) and some parts of the core features. It is available in four 
languages (English, French, German and Spanish).
