    Release of version 1.2.

    This is a maintenance release which fixes a nasty bug which was preventing the processing of single-part articles which contained a part/whole desginator "(1/1)". This is a one-line change, but you are strongly urged to upgrade.

    Upgrading from v1.1 to v1.2 is easy - just replace the executable. Your existing .ubhrc and .newsrc files are entirely forward compatible with v1.2.

    Release of version 1.1.

    This is a maintenance release which primarily improves the usability and robustness of ubh. Be sure to review the CHANGES file for details on all the new features that were added for this new version.

    Upgrading from v1.0 to v1.1 is easy - just replace the executable. Your existing .ubhrc and .newsrc files are entirely forward compatible with v1.1.

    This version of ubh features the work of special guest developer Mark Sullivan (ubh@markbs.com). Thanks, Mark!

    Unfortunately, disk-based article assembly did not make it into this version. I know many of you are anxiously awaiting this capability. Hopefully it will be ready in time for the next version. The v1.1 was long overdue; I didn't want to hold it up any longer.

    The Unix .tar.gz has been getting anywhere from 50-100 downloads per week. The Windows .zip gets 5-15 downloads a week. Thanks for downloading and trying ubh. Extra special thanks to everyone who has linked to the ubh page.
