Announcing gnatsweb 2.9.0

[Yngve Svendsen]

A new release of Gnatsweb is available for download.

The version number is 2.9.0. A couple of features were backported from the 
imminent Gnatsweb 4.0, a couple of bugs were squashed and some small 
submitted patches were incorporated.

Gnatsweb 2.x won't work with the upcoming Gnats 4. Versions working with 
Gnats 4 will have version numbers starting with a '4'. Patches and 
contributions for version 2.x are still welcome, even though no further 
releases are currently planned. The Gnatsweb 2.9.0 distribution (60 kB) is 
available at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/gnatsweb/ immediately.

This is the entry for 2.9.0 in the NEWS file of the distribution:

Changes from 2.8.2 to 2.9.0
* Usability enhancement. There is now a navigation bar on top of all
  pages with links to all major Gnatsweb functions.
* Bug fix. Properly handle a locked GNATS database. This used to make
  Gnatsweb bomb out when submitting edits and leave the PR locked.
* Minor bug fixes related to attachments.
* Add X-Mailer header to outgoing mail.
* Bug fix. Text attachments are no longer truncated at the first blank
  line.
