			Wax7™ Version 7 of our genetic imaging platform is currently under development and is planned to be released to beta-force before a final product release in Q2'09. Wax7 represents over five years of proprietary development and research into computational evolution and human-computer interaction. Major platform changes, including a uniting of the Evolver and Workstation front-ends into a single work environment, will make the software much more convenient for everyday applications such as texture-map design and image processing. At the platform level we expect up to 400-800% increases in performance and finer control over more accurate genetics. [more]

			Wax™ Platform SDK 7 With the Wax7 platform comes out new platform software development kit. Wax is more open than ever before, with several new plug-in interfaces and a unique multiple-instancing plug-in design. The Platform 7 SDK will be posted on our developer support page during the Wax7 beta phase for use by our BetaForce members. However, plug-in developers can also download the SDK and review it in anticipation of the Wax7 release. Anyone will be able to download the early SDK and we urge everyone to do so. The more people that are developing plug-ins, the better. If you're a Wax plug-in developer, you're cool.

			Join BetaForce! Our BetaForce has open positions that we will be filling later this year. BetaForce is our external beta testing team that helps us resolve issues and verify compatibility during the last stage of development. BetaForce members are not employees of manvsbigmachine and are not paid for their services - however, we offer compensation in the form of free products and support...and sometimes a free t-shirt. If you're a BetaForce member, you're really cool. Apply online today! [apply]
