We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of Merlin 2.6 with web publishing capabilities.

With the Web Sharing module, you can publish your project file over the web either as a live HTML document so you can collaborate with other users over the web or as a static HTML page that you can share with the team.

This feature opens the door for all users who wish to use Merlin but can’t because they are tied to an operating system other than Mac OS X. By publishing your Merlin project file using Merlin application and its Web Module add on, you can allow any user to access the project and collaborate with you on it only using their web browser.

Here is a project that has been shared using Web Sharing – as you can see, it has just about all the features of Merlin available to the whole team on the web.

The update from earlier versions of Merlin 2 is free, but a separate license is required for the web sharing capabilities. The web sharing licenses can be purchased from the NovaMind online store.

Merlin 2.6 also has a wide range of bug fixes, and enhancements to things like Microsoft Project import, and application of styles.

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of Merlin 2.5. Merlin is a fully featured Project Management application for Mac OS X that integrates with NovaMind Mind Mapping application.

There are over 100 new features in Merlin 2.5, with one of the most requested features being the network-based collaborative project management features with complete access controls.

It also has dynamic planning where activities that have not started can float to the current date, which is very useful for agile project management.

There are too many other new features to mention here, but this once again highlights Merlin’s total dominance of the Mac project management arena.

Version 2.5 is a free update for existing Merlin 2 customers, and you can just download the new version from within your existing copy using the check for update feature, or you can visit our downloads page to download it.

All copies of Merlin sold through the NovaMind online store are compatible with Merlin 2.5.

Merlin has been the best project management program available on Macs for quite some time, and the Merlin team have been enhancing Merlin2 with the following new features:

• Merlin now reads the resource leveling values from mpp and mpx files
• The Edit menu (and the context menu for the activities) now includes the menu item "Delete all assignments."
• It is now possible to search for flag status in the Elements section
• The demo mode can now be identified more prominently
• AppleScript commands have been extended to include standard commands
• Numerous other minor enhancements and bug fixes.
