Hi,

I'd like to clarify: herbstluftwm not dead!

Formally, herbstluftwm is now C++ and we have some new features, so it
is indeed time for a release (the first one after nearly 2 years).
Everybody noticed that already, but I was just too lazy and too shy[1]
to do it.

Luckily, Florian (among others) reminded me that the current development
status diserves a release — so here it is. As usual, the tarball can be
found on the download page[2] and the new features on the news page[3].

Thanks to all who work on herbstluftwm and support it :-)

Thorsten

[1] Are there any (critical) bugs, introduced in the git since the last
    0.6.2 release, did herbstluftwm become slower…?
