Recently I was in deep hibernation and somewhat still in it , Reason for it was we are preparing for our next big release. We have many new modules , enhanced device support , increased scalability (Grid based computing) and brand new reporting and testing, monitoring framework not to forget core enhancements in ALA Algorithm itself .

Also coming up is intelligent GUI framework which generates UI on runtime based on user interaction /context … phew !! All these plus many new features will out in our first public release soon!

Team plans to head for RishiKesh after the release and once all major bugs are nailed , for white river rafting, clean fresh air and some chilled beer !!
