2004-12-20
Here goes the second release candidate. At some point during the past couple
of days the patching became rather hectic. Most of it is work going into the
ECMAScript support, which still is very experimental and unstable, but the
rest of the code should be fairly unaffected by it. The main changes includes
fixes for a lot of bugs marked as blockers and something not seen very often:
new documentation.

fonseca@diku.dk
http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/elinks-users/2004-September/000699.html
2004-09-29
This release adds begining infrastructure for javascripting. It is still very
beta so please report issues back to us. Also HTML source highlighting is now
available as a feature making it much easier to navigate the scary place of
HTML code.

The stable 0.9.2 is now available

It contains two fixes: one for manpage comments and the second for HTTP
redirecting. This could very well be the last release in the stable 0.9
branch.

Updates for the unstable branch
fonseca@diku.dk
http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/elinks-users/2004-September/000663.html
2004-09-21
This release sports quite a few bugfixes and improvements all over the tree.
Most important new thing is improvements in the CSS parsing and selector
handling so that ELinks now honours more styles. Also the possibility to
easily control what IP version to use is very exciting.

First prerelease of the unstable branch
fonseca@diku.dk
http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/elinks-users/2004-September/000659.html
2004-09-11
With almost 4000 patches this release is a giant step forward but at the same
time it is far from being stable so expect it to crash or do other annoying
things. The announcement highlights the most important changes and what to
expect in the following releases in the unstable branch.
]]>


Yet another release candidate for the stable branch
fonseca@diku.dk
http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/elinks-users/2004-September/000658.html
2004-09-11
This release jumps from the previous 0.9.2rc4 to 0.9.2rc7 due to the new
incompetent maintainer fumbling with the version numbers. ;-) It mostly
features backported bugfixes. Please tell us about any problems you will meet.

ELinks maintainer change

Pasky announced that he is stepping down as the maintainer of the project.
Fortunately he will still be around to participate in discussions and
contribute code. The maintainership is handed over to Jonas.

New bugfix release of the stable branch
fonseca@diku.dk
http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/elinks-users/2004-June/000558.html
2004-06-22
It does not claim to fix all the known bugs because along the process we
surely forgot to backport some bugfixes, please tell us about any problems you
will meet.

Internationalized domain names are now supported
fonseca@diku.dk
2004-05-23
Optional support for using GNU libidn has been added to the unstable branch.
It needs a lot of testing so please report back any problems.

DOM implementation
fonseca@diku.dk
2004-02-23
Rewriting the HTML parser has been on the TODO list for a long time. ELusive
was the first attempt and now a new attempt is being made. This time with the
goal of not only rewriting the parser but also the renderer and finally make
it possible to hook a JavaScript interpreter into the DOM framework.
The code lives in a separate branch named ECMASCRIPT

The age of CSS hacking
fonseca@diku.dk
2004-01-20
The work on supporting Cascading Style Sheets has begone. Among the small
things to enjoy is highlighting of search terms when viewing cached pages from
google and then links on freashmeat are now underlined. Still a lot to do but
the basic infrastucture regarding CSS parsing is taking shape.
