Hi,
I'm happy to announce that we just released Cinderella.2 -- you can
get it immediately from our website http://cinderella.de .
I hope that many of those on the list will try the new features of
Cinderella.2 (physics simulations, scripting, transformation
objects, ...). If you have any questions, feel free to mail me or
authors@cinderella.de !
Please spread this announcement, thanks a lot! I thought it's not
appropriate to cross-post this to the other geometry lists at
mathforum, so some others who are interested might miss it.

PS: Here's the official press release:
PRESS RELEASE
Berlin, Germany, June 1st.
The Interactive Geometry Software Cinderella.2 has been released.
More than seven years after its award-winning first version was
published, this version sets new standards for interactive geometry
in the classroom. The previous version received, among others, the
European Academic Software Award and the German Educational Software
Award digita2001.
Besides extensions to the geometry part of the software the
integrated physics simulation engine is particularly interesting for
classroom use in mathematics and science education. Furthermore, an
API allows for even more customized virtual experiments. The solid
mathematical foundation of Cinderella.2 makes it a suitable software
not only for K-12 education, but also in university teaching and
research.
Cinderella has been developed by Prof. Dr. Dr. Jürgen Richter-Gebert
(Technical University Munich) and Prof. Dr. Ulrich Kortenkamp
(University of Education Schwäbisch Gmünd). A single user license is
available for 59 US$, an extended school license, which can be used
by all teachers and students of a school at school and at home, costs
199 ? (VAT might be added). More information about Cinderella.2 as
well as a demo version are available at its web site http://cinderella.de.
As an introductory offer customers entering the coupon code CDY2-
INTRO-M will receive a discount of 10%. The offer ends July 1st.
Currently, Cinderella.2 is a download product only. A book version
including a CD-ROM to be published by Springer-Verlag is in preparation.
