This project

The RequestPolicy "Continued" project is a fork of RequestPolicy, which had been developed by Justin Samuel until 2012. Currently we aim at releasing our first stable version – 1.0 – but there is still much to do. If you want to be informed about this milestone, you could subscribe to this issue. If you're interested, here you can find a list of all open issues for version 1.0.
