SMaRT Tool Release History
 

Note on Version Numbers

While this is a very new application, with development beginning last year as we sought to replace our older tracking system, the version numbers don't appear to reflect this. We usually apply a version number for this application to keep it close to the current version of the SobekCM web application at the time of its release. That is not to say that there will ALWAYS be a new version of this tool released with each new web application. In general, this tool changes much less than the other portions of the SobekCM system.
