xTuple ERP 3.2: Postgres-powered open source ERP

Greetings,

We're very pleased to announce that the final version of xTuple ERP version 3.2.0 - PostBooks, Standard, and
ManufacturingEditions - are now available for download.  This is the eleventh release of the world's most advanced open
sourceERP from xTuple (formerly known as OpenMFG). 

PostgreSQL is a key technology for xTuple - all the business logic resides in pl/pgsql functions and triggers, and the
applicationincludes powerful APIs built with database views and rules in a separate schema. 

There is quite a bit of exciting new functionality in this release, including dozens of significant enhancements to
CRM,Manufacturing, Purchasing, and Accounting.  Version 3.2 also includes major updates to the integrated OpenRPT
reportwriter, and for the first time, a fully-integrated copy of Qt/Designer - which allows power users to create new
screens,as well as edit existing screens within xTuple, without requiring the added complexity of a separate Qt
developmentenvironment. 

In total, there are 82 new features, and almost 300 bug fixes since version 3.1 just three months ago.  The full
ReleaseNotes for the 3.2.0 cycle are available at the version of this note linked on the homepage at www.xtuple.org. 

So what's next?  There will be a very short cycle for a 3.2.1 release, which will primarily focus on additional
scriptingtools for the Screen Builder, and then we will turn our attention to version 3.3, which is targeted for late
April. If you are looking to contribute or sponsor development for version 3.3, please let us know soon, as we expect
itwill fill up fast. 

Speaking of things that fill up fast, mark your calendars for the week of February 23.  That's the date for our next
xTupleERP training community event.  It's our most popular class (http://www.xtuple.com/training101), and we'd love to
seeyou there. 

Best regards,
Ned
