I'm happy to be able to announce that Xapian 1.3.4 is now available. Please note that 1.3.x releases are development releases - they are made to encourage earlier and wider use and testing of new and changed code. Our record with 1.1.x was very good - all the bugs I am aware of were either in new features, or were also present in the corresponding 1.0.x release. But if you main concern is minimising risk of accidental breakage, sticking with 1.2.x would be prudent, at least for deployment. The 1.3.x development series will lead to a stable 1.4.x release series. We don't yet have a date set for when that will happen, but we're certainly closing in on 1.4.0. If you make packages of this release, please make sure that they are very clearly labelled as not being a stable version, and ensure that they can be installed in parallel with the stable version (the default paths and program suffix are set to help make this easier). If they are binary packages you should also be aware that 1.3.x comes with no guarantee of ABI stability (code built against 1.3.3 will need rebuilding for 1.3.4). There's been exactly 6 months of development work since 1.3.3, so the lists of changes are substantial and I won't try to summarise them here. You can read the full lists of user-visible changes here: http://xapian.org/docs/xapian-core-1.3.4/NEWS http://xapian.org/docs/xapian-omega-1.3.4/NEWS http://xapian.org/docs/xapian-bindings-1.3.4/NEWS Note that 1.3.4 includes all relevant changes that were in 1.2.22. As always, if you encounter problems, please report them here, or to the bug-tracker: http://xapian.org/bugs The source tarballs are available from here: http://oligarchy.co.uk/xapian/1.3.4/ A big thankyou to the following people for helping to make this release a reality: Richard Boulton, coventry, Philip Neustrom, James Aylett, Will Greenberg, Emmanuel Engelhart, Dylan Griffith, Jorge C.

As always, if you encounter problems, please report them here, or to the bug-tracker: http://xapian.org/bugs Since 1.2.17, I'm providing detached GPG signatures for each of the release tarballs (for each tarball, the signature is in a corresponding file with ".asc" appended).

Adding these files wasn't part of the scripted website update for a development snapshot (only for a stable release). I've just fixed that, and rerun the website update. So it's now fixed, and should just happen automatically in the future. Thanks for reporting. Cheers, Olly
