S#arp Architecture 1.5 Beta 1 released

 Well it is official, I just finished my first release for S#arp Architecture. While this is only a beta release, it does contain some big upgrades and we are hoping to get any bugs handled quickly so that we can get the RTM release completed. This will be a short post, with a more detailed posts coming in the next few days.

A big thanks goes out to Billy McCafferty, Michael Aird, Hoang Tang, and everyone else that had a say in this release.
