I'm pleased to announce the availability of a new GNU Ghostscript
release: gnu-ghostscript-8.56.0.

This release is an adaptation of GPL Ghostscript version 8.56, with
changes to make it compliant with GNU standards and policies.  It is
available from the GNU Ghostscript project page:
http://www.gnu.org/software/ghostscript/

This release include many bugs fixed over GNU Ghostscript 8.55, add DMP
printer drivers and ppds (thanks to Sahaya Darcius) and append a patch
number to package version to avoid confusion with GPL release.

This list is from the 8.56 GPL version released by Artifex Software,
Inc. and artofcode LLC :

      * numerous bug fixes and improvements
      * comformance with the Quality Logic CET suite for Postscript has
been improved, a special 'gs_cet.ps' prefix file can be sent with a job
to produce output closer to that of the reference implementation

Enjoy !
