The StoryEdit and StorySGML projects have changed names. We now call them BARD StoryEdit and BARD StorySGML. Most importantly the new web BARD StoryEdit has a lot of features and has been completely rewritten to include several nice features. This should create a much better visual and usage experience. The key features deal with handling different security accesses, and better handling of chronological information. We are still working to get it all the things working correctly. However we would like to start a Beta program to have some feedbacks in other to improve the product.

The new features of BARD StoryEdit 1.0 are:

• New web design (much, much better);
• Charactes, group and locale now have logs, that can be used to track information;
• Locales now can have maps, this is a simple way to document areas;
• All text areas now can have lists, notes, and references to logs and other story elements;
• Security now limits who can see or edit each element;
• Text block can be hidden from certain users;
• Importing is supported by the interface (still local files only).

This is a big improvement from the current StoryEdit 0.61. More information as soon as the infrastructure is in place.
