GNOME 3590 Published by

Tomboy 0.5.6 has been released:

This mail is to announce the new Tomboy version 0.5.6 development release. If you're running a previous 0.5.4 or older, you'll want to update to this release before you hit the bulleted list serialization problem (fixed in 0.5.5).

Tomboy is a simple note-taking application designed to be unobtrusive and friendly, while supporting inter-note links similar to a WikiWikiWeb to help you organize your notes and ideas. It can run either as a Gnome panel applet or a notification tray-icon.

See the website at http://www.gnome.org/projects/tomboy for downloads, screenshots, and more information.
