Press Release Summary: UNA 1.0 enables multiple software engineers in different
locations to collaborate with each other-simultaneously and in real time-on the same
piece of code.

Press Release Body: BOULDER, CO-N-BRAIN, Inc., a start-up company whose mission is
to create tools that increase the efficiency of software development, today
announced the release of its new product, UNA 1.0. Four years in the making, UNA
represents a fundamental shift in the paradigm that has dominated the software
development industry for the past 30 years.

UNA is the tool of choice for agile, lean, and efficient software development. It
takes Pair Programming to a whole new level by enabling two-or more-developers to
jointly work on the same piece of code. UNA can be used by people working in the
same building and by distributed teams separated by continents.

John A. De Goes, president of N-BRAIN, sums up the guiding purpose of the UNA
paradigm as \"quality through collaboration.\" He adds that, \"Every developer has his
or her own unique set of strengths and weaknesses. This means that each member of
the team catches different defects and has different ways of solving the same
problem. Alone, they can do tremendous things. But working together, nothing can
stop them.\"

Because it allows real-time collaboration, UNA takes full advantage of the
collective engineering power of a group of software engineers. By greatly increasing
the \"idea space,\" it enables developers to create innovative, robust solutions that
far exceed what any one engineer could produce alone. And by emphasizing teamwork,
UNA encourages the development of a supportive, enthusiastic community of developers
who help each other-and the company-succeed.

The UNA approach boosts employee productivity and promotes rotating code ownership,
peer review, collaborative design, and modular, component-based development. It also
increases code quality, reduces long-term maintenance costs, shortens time-to-market
and increases customer satisfaction.

UNA's comprehensive set of features include real-time collaborative editing;
per-project, per-user customization of project roles; integrated collaborative
whiteboard; and chat to facilitate collaboration. It also offers syntax highlighting
for dozens of languages; support for running third-party tools, such as compilers
and debuggers from within UNA; powerful search and replace features; generation of
key statistics for managers; comprehensive support for Version Control Systems such
as CVS, Perforce, and Subversion; and a wide assortment of editing features.
