This release includes several bugfixes to art and xlib and some work done on the GDI interface by Christopher Armstrong. Support for keyed encoding has been added to all gui classes and Nib loading as well as RTFD read and write support has been implemented. For the most part, nibs are (or should be) compatible between GNUstep and Mac OS X. Additionally, better support for color schemes and themes has been added. In the near future theming should be integrated into gui itself.
