What’s New with Siril 1.4?

The upcoming version 1.4 is making great strides. We are still in the process of introducing new features but should be approaching a stabilization phase quite soon. It represents a major advancement, almost a break with previous versions: a lot of care has been put into ergonomics. Also, the number of new features is becoming very significant and we can’t wait to release a beta version. Stay tuned, you never know!
