ANN: libchewing 0.3.2 release
Kanru Chen
很高興在這裡宣佈 libchewing 0.3.2 (code name kanruru) 的釋出，這個版本以
原有的 API 架構為基礎做了些許調整，隱藏了非公開的符號，因此可以預期接下來
會比較容易維護 ABI 的相容。Doxygen 重新啟用，API 的說明在經過整理、補強後
目前有超過一半的 API 都有註釋可參考。
使用者比較容易注意到的改變有較快的啟動速度與較小的安裝檔，改良過的斷詞與
自動學詞演算法。
目前 Win32 部份的開發已經與 libchewing 使用同一份 code base，因此以上的
改變很快也會有 Win32 的版本 :)
而此 branch 還有許多未完成的特性如改良檔案格式、重新設計 I/O 層、操作
詞庫檔的 API 與工具程式等。任何人都歡迎提出您的意見以及提交 patch :)
I am glad to announce here the release of libchewing 0.3.2 (code name
kanruru). We did some adjustment of the API based on original
architecture and hide the non-public symbols. We can expect the next
release will be easier to maintain ABI compatibility. Doxygen support is
re-enabled. At present, more than half of all APIs have been annotated.
Users noticeable changes are faster start-up speed, smaller binary size
and improved algorithms.
