 After this first release and because he felt that some business could be build upon panoramic, he founded Kolor, a well know business which is the creator of [http://www.autopano.net Autopano Pro], a fully automatic stitcher. Autopano Pro uses an industrial strong implementation of the SIFT algorithm, but has also many other features in a single easy to use package.

 * New extensible modular GUI framework for Panorama Photography. Ippei Ukai has refactored the hugin code, cleaning the interface and prepared for future Qt development while keeping wxWidgets compatibility. The upcoming hugin release will still use wxWidgets mainly because the development of specific Qt widgets is very time consuming. However, future plans are also to provide hooks for rapid GUI development with higher level languages such as Python, and it will benefit largely from his refactorization as well.
 * Anti-ghosting HDR panorama blending and merging algorithm. During GSoC Jing presented her results at the IVRPA conference in Berkeley. She successfully finished the project and the code is now merged into hugin source code tree which we expect to release as 0.7.4 soon.
-* Interactive Panoramic Viewer. This is a work on FreePV panoramic viewer. Since GSoC the work is still happening in the [http://freepv.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/freepv/freepv/branches/branch_leonox/ SoC branch of SVN]. There is no release featuring changes done by the student yet. It is quite possible to see FreePV coce being integrated into VLC which is a popular crossplatform media viewer.

 * Feature matching for panoramic images. Zoran Mesec successfully created Matchpoint - a new automatic control points generator that isn't affected by patents. Zoran also volunteered to be mentor for further Matchpoint development this year in GSoC2008 which shows his constant involvement into the project.
 * VIPS integration. This project was supposed to bring very large images support to hugin, but failed.
