CLIPS Year in Review: 2015

Since my consulting gig with IBM ended in 2014, this was the first year in a long while I was able to devote most of my time to CLIPS development.

The major accomplishment this year was the release of version 6.3, which included significant performance improvements for some types of problems. The microEMACS editor, X Window interface, and help functions were put out to pasture with this release.

The first beta releases of CLIPS iOS, CLIPS .NET, and CLIPS CGI also occurred in 2015. CLIPS JNI also had two updates.

Finally, work on CLIPS 6.4 (code name Cypher) started in 2015. This release will include IDEs for .NET, MacOS, and Java Swing with unicode support and similar functionality; completed versions of CLIPS JNI, CLIPS .NET, CLIPS iOS, and CLIPS CGI; Adventures in CLIPS Programming (a replacement for the CLIPS User's Guide); and major usability enhancements for deftemplates/facts.
