C-INTERCAL 0.29 has been released! It can be downloaded from <http://
c.intercal.org.uk/download/>.

This release is the first since Eric S. Raymond (the original author
of C-INTERCAL) rejoined the C-INTERCAL as comaintainer with me, and
reflects a reconvergence of my and his forks. There are a huge number
of changes in this release since 0.28, more than for any other
release; see <http://gitorious.org/intercal/intercal/blobs/master/
HISTORY> for details. Highlights include yet another new build system,
a full regression test suite against a wide range of programs, better
efficiency of the compiled programs, many bugfixes, and some fun new
language features, like computed CREATE and an FFI to Funge-98.

In addition to thanking esr for his hard work in reconverging and
tracking down INTERCAL history, as well as tidying up a lot of loose
ends and writing many improvements, I would like to thank Joris Huizer
for a spate of useful bug reports and patches, Arvid Norlander for
refactoring part of the code I didn't dare to touch, Stefan O'Rear for
the syntax highlighting script for vim, and Claudio Calvelli (the CLC-
INTERCAL maintainer) for hosting the resulting paxball.

If you have any questions, suggestions, bug reports, or patches,
please contact one of the maintainers; likely me at
<ais...@bham.ac.uk>, because I suspect I'm less busy in general than
esr is. Or just post it to alt.lang.intercal.
