Pan 0.10.0.91, "Satin and Hilde", has been released.
It can be found at http://pan.rebelbase.com/.
What is Pan?
Pan is a newsreader, loosely based on Agent and Gravity, which
attempts to be pleasant to use for new and advanced users alike.
It has all the typical features found in newsreaders and also
supports offline newsreading, article filtering, multiple connections,
and a number of extra features for power users and alt.binaries fans.
It's also the only Unix newsreader to get a perfect score on the
Good Net-Keeping Seal of Approval evaluations. See
http://pan.rebelbase.com/features.html for the rest of the
sales pitch.
About 0.10.0.91
The improbable version number is to indicate that this is a beta
between 0.10.0 and 0.10.1, without confusing RPM with sane,
human-readable phrases like "beta". Better solutions are welcomed. :)
