Photran 6.0 is scheduled for release on June 23 alongside Eclipse 3.6,
CDT 7.0, and PTP 4.0. We would like to encourage you to try out
Photran 6.0 Release Candidate 2, which is available today. It is quite
easy to install; see below. This is *not* the final release, so please
report any bugs using the "Report a Bug" link on the Photran Web site
and ask any questions on the photran mailing list... we still have a
couple of weeks to fix any outstanding problems before the final
release in June (RC3 will be next week, and RC4 the following week).
