I was just reminded that I had posted the announcement for the latest
release on my blog but I forgot to do it here...  Sorry about that.

I also decided to create a mailing-list called "testng-announcements" (
http://groups.google.com/group/testng-announcements) that will be used only
for new TestNG release announcements. If you find the testng-users list too
noisy but you'd like to know when a new release is available, you might want
to subscribe to testng-announcements.

Announcing TestNG 5.13.1

TestNG 5.13.1 is now available. The previous release was just three months
ago, but as you can see below, a lot of fixes went into this new version. A
big thanks to everyone who helped (hopefully credited below), and especially
to Nalin Makar, who made some major contributions to TestNG these past
months.

You can either download TestNG from the web
site<http://testng.org/doc/download.html>or from Maven:
