<div class="section" id="unreleased">
<h2>Unreleased<a class="headerlink" href="#unreleased" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Here are changes in git master that haven&#8217;t yet made it to a snapshot release:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>The cash contract has moved from com.r3corda.contracts to com.r3corda.contracts.cash.</li>
<li>Amount class is now generic, to support non-currency types (such as assets, or currency with additional information).</li>
<li>Refactored the Cash contract to have a new FungibleAsset superclass, to model all countable assets that can be merged
and split (currency, barrels of oil, etc.)</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section" id="milestone-0">
<h2>Milestone 0<a class="headerlink" href="#milestone-0" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>This is the first release, which includes:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Some initial smart contracts: cash, commercial paper, interest rate swaps</li>
<li>An interest rate oracle</li>
<li>The first version of the protocol/orchestration framework</li>
<li>Some initial support for pluggable consensus mechanisms</li>
<li>Tutorials and documentation explaining how it works</li>
<li>Much more ...</li>
