Promise :) + +Apart from that, thanks to some great work of [our translators](/i18n/), +we've also enabled our fifth language on the website: [French](/fr). +We've seen an increase in users signing up with .fr email addresses, +so that goes to show that translation really does help make the site accessible to more people. + +Now apart from this, I don't have much to talk about that you can see right here on the site. +That doesn't mean we haven't been busy. Much to the contrary! + +I've started porting freesewing core to node.js. It's really early days so I can't really talk about it too much, but I will do so at a later date. + +## Looking ahead to August + +August will bring the release of Sandy, and we'll also celebrate our first year here at freesewing.org. + +Perhaps that will be a good time to talk about our plans for the future :) + +
