The first stable release of the 3.x series of MetaScale’s open-source software is available: NT² 3.0. It also includes its spin-off project, Boost.SIMD (not yet a Boost library). Many Issues have been closed since last beta. The main focus of this release cycle was to fix performances issues and to stabilize some parts of the API. Next step will be to separate NT2 and Boost.SIMD into separate repositories, thus making one more step toward Boost.SIMD submission into review.
