ANNOUNCE: dia-0.83

[James Henstridge <james daa com au>]

I have released dia-0.83.  For those who don't know, dia is a diagram tool
similar to visio that can do UML, network and flowchart diagrams among
others.  This is mainly a bug fix release that fixes a number of the
problems people were having with 0.82.  It also has a few new features.

It is available from:
  ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/stable/sources/dia/dia-0.83.tar.gz

Here is a small list of the changes:

* Copying/pasting of bezier and image objects should work correctly.
* New export filter interface, which allows export filters to be
  loaded from plugins rather than being integrated into the application.
* New CGM export plugin.  It currently doesn't handle beziers yet, but
  it does handle all other aspects of rendering.
* Fixed rendering of logo in about dialog.
* Don't reencode the symbol font in latin1, as this stops it working.
* Renamed the --export-to-ps option to --export (the short form is still -e).
  It now works out which filter to use based on the file extension.
* Portability fixes.

James.
