Version 3.5: Additional Planning Forms, Group Calendaring, and Internationalization


Today marks the official release of Version 3.5 of the DJ Event Planner software. The biggest change is the introduction of additional planning forms for clients. These additional planning forms can be used for things like expanded introductions, trivia questionaires, love story forms, or anything else you can come up with.
