<h2>PhantomJS 1.9 "Sakura"</h2>

<p>Sakura is a spring flower, see Ariya's <a href="https://groups.google.com/d/msg/phantomjs/yM25jtdispo/dXbenqn-mvYJ">email on Mar 23, 2013</a>:</p>

<blockquote>
We do agree that this release should mark the end of the 1.x series.
Going forward, we'll switch to Qt 5 and use the chance to boot the
all-new 2.0. For such a closing release, it just makes sense to pick
something related to the first code name ever given (exercise for the
reader), hence why 1.9 is called "Sakura".
