AbiWord 2.2.8 Released

Submitted by uwog on Mon, 2005-06-06 06:05. AbiWord

This release has seen a lot of bugfixes, polish, and cleanups as we are
nearing the end of the 2.2 release cycle. We are working hard towards
AbiWord v2.4, which is shaping up nicely.

This release is mostly a bugfix release, with some minor new features.
The changes from 2.2.7 to 2.2.8 include, amongst others:

Make Text Folding actually work
Fix text justification on MacOSX
Initial support for the OpenDocument (.odt) file format

The full Changelog can be found here.

All users are advised to upgrade to this new release. Windows users are
advised to uninstall older versions first, and to make sure there are no files
left behind[1].
