------------------------ WWWOFFLE Announcement ------------------------

The latest version of WWWOFFLE is now available to fix some bugs from
version 2.8c and add in some new features.

-------------------- NEWS --------------------
Bug Fixes:
 The add-cache-info option works for xhtml pages.  Images and stylesheets etc in
 xhtml pages are fetched.  Info pages show xml/xhtml source.  Disallow invalid
 characters in hostnames.  Fix log file ownership.  Close file descriptor on log
 file.  Handle stdin, stderr and stdout properly.  Don't force errors to stderr
 if previously disabled.  Disable the demoronise-ms-html option if the HTML is
 UTF-8 etc.  Make sure 'wwwoffle -fetch' lists all outgoing URLs.  The
 wwwoffle-tools programs return an error code in case of error.  Reset page CSS
 when using add-cache-info option.  Give warning if unexpected URL argument seen
 for internal URLs.

New Features:
 A URL-SPEC path like '/*/foo*' matches '/foo*' and '/*/foo*' as a special case.
 New GIF modification code, handles GIF87a and GIF89a formats, more robust.

New Options
 Added an HTMLModify option to fix bad Cyrillic pages (like demoroniser).
 Added an HTMLModify option to stop marquee scrolling text in HTML.
