[Charles Kerr <charles rebelbase com>]

Pan 0.11.92 "Egbert B. Gebstadter" 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/ for the rest of the sales pitch.

About 0.11.92

        This is the third beta of 0.12.0, which is a port of Pan to gtk2.
        Along the way we've added better charset/internationalization support,
        lots of usability improvements, offline mode, fewer library
        dependencies, and, of course, bugfixes.
