Downloads
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
Curently I'm developing v2, and as such the older 1.x is no longer actively
|
|
maintained (the code base is *very* different). However, these older versions
|
|
may still be downloaded from [Cantata's github wiki](https://github.com/CDrummond/cantata/wiki/Previous-%28Google-Code%29-Downloads)
