<h2>Current Releases</h2>
<p>
-The current stable release is 0.96.1, released 23 August 2004.

-(Yes, the current "stable" release is a little long in the tooth.
-In practice, most everyone uses the testing pre-releases,
-because our testing methodology gives us a pretty good
-track record of not breaking things from release to release.)
+The current stable and latest release is 0.97, released 17 May 2007.
</p>
<h2>Upcoming Releases</h2>
-Take these with a huge grain of salt,
-this is very rough planning
-and subject to change.
+SCons is putting in place a new release team of interested developers.
+Expect this section to be updated once
+that team has hammered out a release schedule.
