[Passwordsafe-users] PasswordSafe 3.08 pre-release

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

I've just uploaded a pre-release of the next version of PasswordSafe, and
would appreciate any inputs from the PasswordSafe user and developer
community, before I "officially" release it, hopefully in a few days. This
version has fixes and new features implemented by DK and myself.

This release is a full unicode build, meaning that non-English data should
be stored and displayed correctly.

3.08 (1461) may be downloaded from
http://passwordsafe.sf.net/tmp/pwsafe-3.08-1461-bin.zip (zip file with
executable and related files) or
http://passwordsafe.sf.net/tmp/pwsafe-3.08-1461.exe (self-extracting
installation)


SHA1 hashes:
e305dfae13ad2980f0674889009b8af3a3c0b8a8 *pwsafe-3.08-1461-bin.zip
501b106187fe76ef9e9481e7ca85ccdc4602fdd3 *pwsafe-3.08-1461.exe

(gpg signature files are also available from the same url - just add ".sig"
to the above urls.)


Thanks for your help,
