Pan 0.10.0.93, "Little Leprechaun", 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 0.10.0.93 This is a big bugfix release: for once I'm unable to crash it in heavy torture testing. Undoubtedly you'll be able to correct this situation. :) 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". Changes between 0.10.0.92 and 0.10.0.93 UPDATES * Added Preferences option to toggle custom foreground/background colors in the text pane vs. using the default gtk theme colors. Thanks to Justin Piszcz for suggesting this. BUG FIXES * Fixed problems with different threads manipulating articles concurrently. This should fix some of the bugs recently reported which are irreproducable but all similar. * Articles' memory management is now tied to an article refcount of the group which owns them. This resolves the Article life cycle issues like "what happens if a rule deletes an article that articlelist is drawing?" and "what if an article is expired while a person's reading it?" etc. * Fixes bug that caused some Tasks to get stuck in an Abort state even if they completed successfully. * Fixed bug that caused Tasks to sometimes not get run in the queue until another task was added to give it a bump. Thanks to Douglas Kilpatrick for tracking down this bug. * Fixes for creating/saving negated filter conditions. Thanks to Jed S. Baer for reporting this bug. * Fixed small but nasty memory corruption bug when saving attachments. * Fixes bug that didn't disconnect correctly from the news server when an error occurred while saving attachments. * Show the correct linecount in the Header Pane for multipart binaries when reposts are included in the multipart thread. * Fix bug that caused Pan to crash when it was started in zoom mode. Thanks to Leo Lipelis for reporting this bug. * Fix in GMime for Debian and Solaris charsets. Thanks to Volodymyr M. Lisivka for submitting a patch to GMime. * Wrap excessively long email addresses in the header display so that Pan's window doesn't strech off the screen. Thanks to David Watson for reporting this bug.
