Very well done to all involved. Could I perhaps suggest a minor change to the wording of this announcement for future releases. The current wording seems to imply that the Microsoft Windows version of the main release, and the 'other platforms' are an afterthought. How about something like: Getting GnuCash GnuCash 2.2.5 can be downloaded from gnucash.org or sourceforge.net. It runs on most flavours of Linux, together with Mac and Microsoft Windows. It is available as source code. For many Linux distributions, pre-built packages are available. For the Microsoft Windows operating system there is a self-installing setup program which includes all necessary additional libraries.
