Welcome to our first CurseForge update presented by Telshin (me), the Director of Web. One of my big initiatives with heading up the CurseForge project is to inform the community on things we have going on behind the scenes and to let you know when we deploy new features/fixes to CurseForge. Our main goal is to make the life of an author easy by providing the best platform to interact and distribute their creations to the community. Over the course of the next few months, I hope our new features will do just that. Without much further ado, I present our deploy notes for Oct 1, 2015.
