We know it's way overdue, but still the AbiWord team is happy to
announce the availability of AbiWord v2.4.5. This release a bugfix
release only, but this time the amount of bugfixes is rather huge.
Especially the import and export filters have received a lot of
attention due to the Google Summer of Code program, which is funding
these developments.

The changes from v2.4.4 to v2.4.5 include, amongst others:


  * Almost completely rewrote the DocBook export filter, gaining
    substantial more functionality in the process
  * Fixed a security bug pointed out to us by Joxean Koret (thanks!)
  * Fixed a massive amount of bugs in the OpenDocument import and export
    filters
  * Fixed the unstability on x86_64 architectures

The full Changelog can be found at
http://www.abisource.com/changelogs/2.4.5.phtml

Needless to say, all users are advised to upgrade

Packages for Windows and Linux are available for download from our site.
A Mac OSX installer should be available for download soon.

Note to Mac OSX users: please aware that the font rendering is still a
work-in-progress. Depending on the fonts used the quality of the
rendering may be sub-optimal. We hope to address this issue as soon as
possible, but since AbiWord is a 100% volunteer effort, we don't give
any timeframe. Help is always appreciated though.

We are very much interested in any bug you may find. Please report these
to http://bugzilla.abisource.com/.

Enjoy!
