ANNOUNCE: Glom 1.8.2

[news 28]

*** Glom

 

With Glom you can design table definitions and the relationships between

them, plus arrange the fields on the screen. You can edit and search the

data in those tables, and specify field values in terms of other fields.

It's as easy as it should be.

*** Glom 1.8.2:

 

Changes since 1.8.2:

 

* Date fields:

- Attempt to guess a 4-digit-year date format for display and
