Hello!

The latest release from the development branch of GnuPG is ready for
public consumption.  This is a branch to create what will extremely
soon become the new stable release of GnuPG 1.4.

We strongly encourage people to try this development release and
report any feedback or problems to gnupg-devel at gnupg.org.  If you have
been waiting until the 1.4 release is imminent before trying the code,
that time is now.

Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.91 (2004-10-15)
- -------------------------------------------------

    * A new configure option --enable-selinux-support disallows
      processing of confidential files used by gpg (e.g. secring.gpg).
      This helps writing ACLs for the SELinux kernel.

    * Support for fetching keys via finger has been added.  This is
      useful for setting a preferred keyserver URL like
      "finger:wk at g10code.com".

    * Timeout support has been added to the keyserver helpers.  This
      allows users to set an upper limit on how long to wait for the
      keyserver before giving up.

    * New "direct" trust model where users can set key validity
      directly if they do not want to participate in the web of trust.

    * Minor bug fixes, code and string cleanups.


Enjoy!

 The GnuPG team (David, Stefan, Timo and Werner)
