Amber is out with more cool stuff:
After 3 months of work we are pleased to announce the 0.12.0 release of Amber. Besides the usual bug fixes a lot of new features have emerged. The biggest change is the switch to RequireJS to specify Amber package dependencies and to load the packages as AMD modules. Amber is now additionally available as Bower [2] component. Bower is also used to manage required JavaScript libraries which don't have to be kept around in the repository anymore.
That's just the first paragraph of highlights; follow the link for more.
