Announcing the version 2.6.7 release of Vilistextum.
Vilistextum is a small and fast HTML to text converter.
It is quite fault-tolerant and deals well with badly-formed HTML.
It has full support for different character sets (e.g. Unicode).
Some features:
==============
* understands HTML 3.2 upto 4.01 and XHTML 1.0
* supports various multibyte encodings (Unicode, Shift_JIS, ...)
* output can be optimized for ebook reading
* converts characters and entities between 128 and 159 from the
windows1252 charset to meaningful strings in ISO-8859-1.
* GUI-frontend using kaptain
* creates footnotes for links
Changes:
========
* BUGFIX: buffer overflow in get_attr() found by Ariel Berkman
* BUGFIX: compilation fix for Solaris by Fredrik Roubert
* more robust behaviour when encountering invalid byte sequences
* added RPM-spec file submitted by Joshua Jensen

previous report and the current one, ending
on Mon Dec 20 00:05:01 CST 2004.
Note that we do not report the number of articles cancelled
after they got approved, because the cancellations are done
manually. Typically messages get cancelled by requests of
posters themselves.
Lastly, the statistics below are skewed towards higher numbers because
there are always some test messages from moderators themselves who
approve and reject them to make sure that our robomoderator functions
properly.
