Hi,
Exciting! However, I'd like a more official announcement together with a Windows build, and Homepage update.
Thanks!

After more than two years of spare-time development Dia 0.97 just got released. You can get it at http://download.gnome.org/sources/dia/0.97/
Some highlights:
* High quality cross-platform print and pdf output by use of cairo. [1]
* Rotated text, but only with the new "Standard - Ouline" object. [2]
* Object properties dialog finally does handle multiple objects. [3]
* Improved text edit mode for consistent handling of the Delete key.
* A new integrated user interface mode with diagrams in tabs. [4]
* Almost 200 bugs and feature requests resolved [5] [6]
Special thanks to:
Lars Clausen - maintaining Dia for more than five years, text edit,
units and much more
Steffen Macke - keeping Dia buildable on win32 and Linux, maintaining
the win32 installer, consistent icon size and more
Sameer D. Sahasrabuddhe - resolving the oldest feature request
(multiple object change) and fixing a bunch of long-standing bugs
Marcel Toele - contributing the ability for custom shapes with subshapes
Petr Novotnik - contributing dedicated database shapes
Thomas Harding - doing a documentation overhaul
Mark Dexter - huge documentaton update
Patrick Hallinan - contributing the integrated UI patches
Elie Roux - contributing Ligths shapes and a lot less compiler warnings
... - everyone else translating, providing patches or reporting bugs
Happy Diagramming,
Hans
