Once again a month has passed and I have some news for you about what has been going on in the RnD corner of our new office space. Along with the real estate, Vaadin's RnD efforts also keep expanding - our headcount is currently 14, up by 5 compared to half a year ago. First of all, you might be ...

There are lots of things going on right now, so please bear with me while I struggle with keeping all the things on a suitable level of detail. The biggest change, literally implemented under the hood, is that we have reorganized the R&D department. For about two years, Vaadin Framework and all ...

The last month can be summarized as Vaadin 7.1.2, some not yet released fixes and some internal fiddling and brainstorming. That was easy. Anything else? With no exciting concrete news to report, I’ll instead take a more human approach. I’m happy to announce a 33% increase in the manpower of the ...

Let’s start with the bad news: We have chosen to postpone Vaadin 7.1 beta 1 to the beginning of May with a stable release coming a month later. The main reason for this delay is that we want to tweak the push support by adding a couple of small features that we initially imagined we would not need ...

It has mostly been business as usual since the last update - lots of small things worth mentioning but nothing as spectacular as the release of Vaadin 7.0.0 last month. Maybe the biggest of the small things is the first maintenance release for Vaadin 7, including a whopping 51 fixes and small ...

Phew! Now it's done. Vaadin 7.0.0 has been released after 16 months of intensive development! The last weeks before the release have passed quite smoothly. The only considerable hiccup has been a change of behavior for some technically invalid layout configurations, that was introduced in RC1. We ...
