ANNOUNCE: Pan 0.11.4

[Charles Kerr <charles rebelbase com>]

Pan 0.11.4 "Never discuss religion, politics, or toast" 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 0.11.4

    This is a final courtesy bugfix release on the Gnome 1.4 branch,
    consisting of about a dozen fixes already in the Gnome 2 branch,
    for people who don't have root on their systems and can't upgrade
    to gtk2.  Everyone else is encouraged to use Pan 0.12.1 or higher
    instead.
