-SDL 2.503 Released!
+Closing the Grant
 </h1>
 <div class="CONTENT">
-<p>SDL 2.503 has been released on to CPAN. The changes are mostly in the new features added to SDLx::* layer. However as our continuing attempt to improve cross platform support we have some low level fixes.</p><br />
-<p>Most interstingly we have begun work on SDLx::Sprite::Animated. Although, volatile, this addition will be highly anticipated. We look forward for more work on it soon. Additionally are the changes in SDLx::Surface. SDLx::Surface is an attempt to provide gfx, pixels, video and low level surface functions in a combined and simpler interface. </p><br />
-<p>Since SDLx::Sprite and SDLx::App depends on SDLx::Surface, new features will be propagated and the magic amplified! These are exciting times for SDL in Perl. So come join us for great justice on #sdl <a href="http://irc.perl.org">irc.perl.org</a> or <a href="mailto:sdl-devel@perl.org">sdl-devel@perl.org</a>. </p><br />
-The detailed <a href="http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/KTHAKORE/SDL-2.503/CHANGELOG">changelog</a> are provided at <a href="http://search.cpan.org/~kthakore/SDL-2.503/">CPAN</a>.<br />
+With the following <a href="https://github.com/PerlGameDev/SDL_Manual/commit/3acf7fada644a24b020fc1caf8338c2dd32b6985">commit</a> I am closing the grant.<br />

+This is what has been accomplished from each of the objectives:<br />
+<ul><li>Cleaner Code and a lot of memory and performance improvements ( SDL 2.527 released Jan 18th )</li>
+<li>10 out of 11 chapters completed:</li>
+<ul><li>The profiling chapter was dropped as there was not enough content to justify a chapter.</li>
+</ul><li>3 Extra chapters added.</li>
+<li>Deviation from a CPAN SDL::Manual release due to the nature of the Manual it is being released as a creative commons<a href="https://github.com/PerlGameDev/SDL_Manual/blob/master/dist/SDL_Manual.pdf"> book</a> instead.</li>
+</ul>Next Steps:<br />
+<ul><li>Get the book polished and edited with chromatic's help</li>
+<li>Fix build system of the html to make a real SDL::Manual release</li>
