The API reference, previously written in LaTeX and thus only really available in PDF format, has been converted into reStructured Text for use with the Sphinx documentation generator.
This has the advantage that the sources are much easier to read than the original LaTeX, and that it can now be converted into other formats, including searchable, cross-referenced HTML.
The documentation has been partially updated to match the actual state of the software, but, as always with documentation, it remains incomplete and out of date in areas. Patches to update or add documentation would be happily accepted.

This is a call to all users of the library to fill out a user survey to help understand who uses botan, why, what they do and don't like about the library, and what future directions would be most beneficial. The survey will run through the end of the month with aggregated results being published sometime in September.

The site has joined the 20th century and it is now possible to leave comments on news items. Spam filtering on comments is provided by Akismet; I've been using Akismet for comments for a while on bitbashing, so far so good.

Thomas Moschny has packaged botan for Fedora, and builds for Fedora 9 and 10 are already available, with packages for RHEL5 coming soon through the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux Fedora community project.
Many thanks to Thomas for creating the RPM and getting it through the Fedora review process.
