+ <nadpis>Release v0.11</nadpis>
+ <perex>fourth public release of Relational pipes</perex>
+ <m:release>v0.11</m:release>
+
+ <text xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
+ <p>
+ We are pleased to introduce you the new development version of <m:name/>.
+ This release brings Recfile input and output and ASN.1 BER output:
+ </p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ <strong>Recfile format support</strong>:
+ Recfile is the native format of <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/recutils/">GNU Recutils</a>.
+ Recfiles are text files that contain records of various types.
+ They are human-editable and serve as simple databases.
+ <m:name/> now contain tools for converting relational data streams to and from the recfile format.
+ This format is good for editing by hand or for storing in some version control system.
+ GNU Recutils and <m:name/> can be used together for data processing or e.g. for data-driven scripting.
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <strong>ASN.1 BER output</strong>:
+ Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) is traditional and well established language for describing interfaces and data structures in particular.
+ This format/language is widespread and actively used in telecommunications, cryptography and other industries.
+ <abbr title="Basic Encoding Rules">BER</abbr> is one of ASN.1 encodings.
+ This release of <m:name/> bring <abbr title="This support will be further improved and extended in further releases.">basic</abbr> support for output in the BER format.
+ Now it can serve as a preview (such data can be opened in dumpasn1 or wireshark) or a template (the source code can be modified to generate BER data in some particular format)
+ and help with interaction with ASN.1 <em>native speakers</em>.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>
+ See the <m:a href="examples">examples</m:a> and <m:a href="screenshots">screenshots</m:a> pages for details.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Please note that this is still a development relasease and thus the API (libraries, CLI arguments, formats) might and will change.
+ Any suggestions, ideas and bug reports are welcome in our <m:a href="contact">mailing list</m:a>.
+ </p>

+ <m:name/> are modular thus you can download and install only parts you need (the libraries are needed always).
+ Tools <code>out-gui.qt</code> and <code>tr-python</code> require additional libraries and are not built by default.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ The module <code>relpipe-in-filesystem</code> uses C++ filesystem API which is supported since GCC 8.
+ This module can be compiled and seems usable even with GCC 6, but requires some patching (switch to the experimental API):

+ The module <code>relpipe-tr-guile</code> uses GNU Guile 2.2 but can also work with 2.0.
+ In such case, it requires this patch:
