All,

We are proud to announce the Mansfield client and server.

Please find the client at https://ondollo.com/mansfield

We are running an instance of the Mansfield server at ondollo.com. We'veworked hard to make the Client and Server fit our perspective on the needto support creation of content as much as consumption. There are a fewfeatures we want to highlight here:

* Pressing "Ctrl-n" in the Mansfield Client starts the cycle of creating anew page on the Mansfield server - the content of the new page (as well asany other page on that server owned by the currently active clientcertificate) is edited directly in the Mansfield client. No other tools,processes, or accounts are required to create text/gemini pages in GeminiSpace. Of course the automated process that "Ctrl-n" guides the userthrough can be navigated manually as well. * If working through a list of links (from say, a Gemini feed), and you'venavigated from the list to one of the links, you can press "n" to have theclient automatically go back to the list, move down to the next link, andaccess that link's referenced content... so... keep pressing "n" and youjust step through all of the listed content. Pressing "p" works similarly,but goes to the previous link instead of the next link. * There are many other shortcuts, listed by pressing "Ctrl-s"

We know there are probably bugs we've missed or haven't found yet, andwe're still working on additional features - but we wanted to releasebefore everything was perfect to allow feedback to start showing up.

We're excited to learn what others think of our approach to supportingcreation of content as much as consumption.
