The currently released version is `0.5.5'.

Noteworthy changes in version `0.5.5'
=====================================

   NOTE that the X/DPS backend is not supported at all in this release.
Hopefully it will be fixed up in the next release.  Too many changes to
mention in detail, but here is a list of a few:

   * Many base classes have been rewritten with tonnes of performance
     improvements that in many cases make it as fast as or faster than
     the NeXT implementation.

   * DO and archiving has received many improvements that help it work
     on a variety of different platforms.

   * Configuration and compilation has been greatly improved and fool
     proofed.

   * There are several new tools for handling services, defaults, and
     pasteboards.

   * A new X11 only gui backend was written, and the gui was much
     improved (probably an understatement). The X11 backend is the
     default now, until DGS gets improved.

Noteworthy changes in version `0.5.0'
=====================================

   * This is first release which has all of the core GNUstep libraries
     combined into a single package which allows configuring, making,
     and installing of all the core libraries with just a few commands.
