[Pan-announce] ANN: Pan 0.112 "Elijah Craig"

[Charles Kerr]

September 10, 2006 - Pan 0.112: "Elijah Craig"

This is "weekly" beta #23 of a full Pan redesign and rewrite in C++.
The quick turnaround time between each beta is to squash as many bugs
as possible before the pending 1.0 release.  Feedback and bug reports
are very much encouraged.

This was a frustrating week in Pan development, since some of
the bugs were subtle and difficult to track.  Still, I think this
is one of the better recent releases.

Thanks to everyone whose suggestions were used in this release:
Jason Auvenshine, Frederic Bezies, Douglas Bollinger, Dave Chand,
Jack Cuyler, K Haley, Artur Jachacy, Christophe Lambin,
Christian Lohmaier, John Mellor, Simon Morgan, Ronald, and Steve.
