AbiWord v2.2.6 and v2.2.7 Release Notes

AbiWord v2.2.6 and v2.2.7 Released

This releases includes a massive list of changes and bugfixes all over the map, ranging from the MS Word importer to the MacOSX port to a nice bunch of fixed crasher bugs. We hope we didn't break something in the process[1].

Update: Yep, we broke text rendering when using locales other than English. Please get 2.2.7. Our sincere appologies.

This release is a bugfix release only. The changes from 2.2.5 to 2.2.7 include, amongst others:

Import TextBoxes from MS Word (finally!)

Fix various crashers relating to table editing, footnotes/endnotes editing, etc

A huge list of MacOSX specific fixes and changes (you rock Francis!)

... and a lot more!

The full Changelog can be found here.

All users are very much encouraged to upgrade to this new version.
