It took some time, but here we are, I am really happy to say: we released Ghiro 0.2! We continuously love to improve Ghiro’s feature and our codebase, I hope you like we now release and any kind of feedback will be appreciated. It follows the official release statement.

Ghiro 0.2 has been released!

Ghiro is an automated image forensics tool: sometimes forensic investigators
need to process digital images as evidence. Dealing with tons of images is
pretty easy, Ghiro is designed to scale to support gigs of images.
All tasks are totally automated, you have just to upload you images and let
Ghiro does the work. Understandable reports, and great search capabilities
allows you to find a needle in a haystack. Ghiro is a multi user environment,
different permissions can be assigned to each user. Cases allow you to group
image analysis by topic, you can choose which user allow to see your case
with a permission schema.

It can be downloaded from http://getghiro.org  in both package and appliance
ready-for-use.
