<h3>Summary<a class="headerlink" href="#summary" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>This release represents a significant advance in Transifex development since
the Transifex 0.3 release in November 2008, maybe even the creation of Transifex
itself in 2007. The single most major change is the complete re-write of the
code from scratch, migrating to the Django framework, but also the multitude
of features added, both of which signify a turning point in Transifex’s history.</p>
<p>Here’s a 40K-foot view of the release in numbers:</p>
