2006-04-21: New release 0.95 ready!
Dia is now available in a new version 0.95. This release focuses on stability and ease of use, featuring a few major new features along with a host of minor improvements and bugfixes that make it easier than ever to create structured diagrams, models and illustrations for documentation, articles, modeling, presentations and many other uses.

Version 0.95 adds the following major features:

    * New "mainpoint" system allows lines to be added by dragging from anywhere on one object to anywhere on another, and to always point towards the middle of an object even when that object is moved.
    * Python plug-ins added to create DOT output, generate Python bindings by 'self reflection', and allow round-trip engineering plug-ins.
    * The grid can now automatically change size depending on your zoom level.
    * Text input now highlights the object that receives the input, and tabbing between text input areas on one or more objects is possible.
    * Several security problems fixed in XFig import and Python plug-in.
    * Many new shapes added, including automata, Gane & Sarson and AADL.
    * Several new UML objects added as well as some extensions to existing objects.
    * Full screen mode.
    * Improved SVG import,
    * Plug-in loading and unloading doesn't require restart of Dia.
    * Many i18n problems have been fixed, particularly in export filters.
    * Many bugs have been fixed, too many to mention here.
    * Command line usage has improved to allow the selecting of individual layers and specific output filters.
    * Uses the new GTK+ File Dialog.
    * Experimental libgnomeprint and Cairo plug-ins.
