libwpd 0.7.0 released
libwpd 0.7.0 marks a major milestone for the libwpd development team.
This new release adds WordPerfect (tm) 4.2, 5.0 and 5.1 documents to the
list of supported document formats.
While the support for these new document types will initially be quite
basic, the complete framework is in place to allow for the easy addition
of features to the new parsers.
All the different document types can be parsed transparently, making the
life of the application developer using libwpd as easy as possible.
Furthermore, build systems for MingW and Microsoft Visual
Studio are now available, adding Microsoft Windows to the list of
supported platforms.

Availability: http://libwpd.sourceforge.net/download.html
Enjoy!
