Protege 4 beta announcement
Protege 4.0 moves to beta -- August 22nd, 2008
Protege 4.0 has been in development in parallel with the Protege 3.x series for approximately 2.5 years. Initial alpha versions were developed by the CO-ODE team and it is now under active development by CO-ODE, Stanford's Protege team, and several other developers. A considerable amount of work has gone into stabilization of the current tool and we are very pleased to move from alpha to beta status.

What's next?
We will be working during the next few weeks to update the main Protege website and Protege Wiki to clarify which documentation refers to version 4.0 beta versus previous versions of Protege.
We are very interested in your feedback on both the application and the documentation. You can contact us via the Protege 4 mailing list.
Also, please keep an eye on Protege 4 status section of this wiki.
Why are there two versions of Protege in beta (3.4 and 4.0)?
Protege 3.4 is currently in beta, but getting close to a final stable release that will continue to be the foundation for Frames users and a robust platform for OWL1.0.
For recommendations about which version of Protege to use and a high level comparison please see this discussion.
