03/11/2007: "GreyMatter 1.7.2 released"

A new version of the GreyMatter software, version 1.7.2 has been released today. The main software download site has just been updated to add the new zip and tar files. The zip is broken into two files purely because of file size issues on the free download site also used, so these files have been reflected on my site for the download. The file contents for the two zip files are the same as the tar.gz file.

Version 1.7.2 brings the following changes (from the changelog):
