ANN: Pan 0.10.0.91 "Satin and Hilde" Released



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. :)

Changes between 0.10.0 and 0.10.0.90

    NEW FEATURES

        * No longer needs gtkhtml (which had a large list of
          prerequisites): to display hotlinks and attached pictures.

        * Added a second quote color for color-coding
          >> One reply
          > from another.

    UPDATES

        * Uses much less memory when decoding attachments.
