Dear Friends,

[First of all, sorry if you receive this more than once, I just think that
it's of interest to all these lists I'm posting to... Please ignore the
spamming.]

This is to announce that FriBidi version 0.9.0 is out, based on a major
rewrite, made by Behdad Esfahbod <behdad bamdad org> and others. Fribidi
is a free implementation of the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm.

These are the most important changes:

    * Full Unicode bidi conformance (no known bugs)!
    * Explicit overrides (LRE, RLE, RLO, LRO) support!
    * Complete restructuring based on GNU coding standard.
    * Internal speedups.
    * Option to compile fribidi without glib.

You can get FriBidi from <http://fribidi.sourceforge.net>. You can also
join the discussion list at
<http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fribidi-discuss>. 

The license is GNU LGPL.
