[wiki:News/Press/OSG2.8.4 2.8.4 press release.]

[http://http://openscenegraph.alphapixel.com/sites/default/files/osgdownload/2.8.4/OpenSceneGraph-2.8.4-source.7z Source code archive.]

The 2.8.4 release (11 April 2011) adds NO new features to the 2.8.3 release, only limited bug fixes and build system improvements. 2.8.4 includes no intentional API changes; applications built with OSG 2.8.3 should not require modification to build with 2.8.4 (and may be able to run with drop-in binary library replacement without recompiling).

Please check out from either the latest release candidate or the 2.8 branch, and test building/running with your applications. Report any issues to the osg-users mailing list. Thanks for your help!
