SHEET A-000 · GENERAL NOTES · ISSUE FOR PRERELEASE

Issued for
prerelease.

After eighteen months of closed trials with four practices and eleven thousand drawing sets, MERIDIAN enters public prerelease today. These are the issue notes: what is signed off, what remains in revision, and how to request your drawing-set access.

REV 0.9.0-BETA.1 — MIN READ GA IN —

Drafting tools split in two somewhere along the way: fast sketching with no rigor, or rigorous modelling a revision too late. MERIDIAN is our attempt to close that gap — a sheet set with a live pulse, built in the open, where every line carries its own audit trail.

Signed off in 0.9

  • M-01Live co-drafting. Up to twelve cursors on one sheet, with per-layer locking and conflict-free merge of concurrent edits.
  • M-02Revision-safe sheet sets. Every issue is immutable; clouds and deltas are computed, not drawn, so nothing is ever lost between revisions.
  • M-03Open geometry kernel. The constraint solver ships as a documented library with a stable API, so your own tooling can read what we read.
  • M-04Offline sheets. Full drawing sets cached locally; edits reconcile with the same merge guarantees when you're back on the network.

Still in revision

  • REV AIFC round-tripping. Import is stable; export re-enters review after tolerance issues surfaced in trial sets.
  • REV BPlot styles. Named pen tables land in 0.9.2; until then, plotting uses the default weight map.

The road to 1.0

  • 0.9.1 · AUGHardening pass on the merge engine; public issue tracker opens.
  • 0.9.2 · SEPPlot styles, batch publishing, and the review-markup API.
  • 1.0 · OCTGeneral availability. Closed-trial sets migrate automatically, with a signed issue record for each.
