+Scsh 0.6.3 Release notes					-*- outline -*-
 
+We are pleased to release scsh version 0.6.3. This release provides an
+interface to the md5 library to produce 128-bit fingerprints of
+strings and files. Scsh now also starts much faster and comes with an
+additional heap image which has the debugging information reduced and
+is therefore much smaller.
 
 The text below gives a general description of scsh, instructions for obtaining
 it, pointers to discussion forums, and a description of the new features in
-release 0.6.2.  (Emacs should display this document is in outline mode. Say
+release 0.6.3.  (Emacs should display this document is in outline mode. Say
 c-h m for instructions on how to move through it by sections (e.g., c-c c-n,
 c-c c-p).)

 * New in this release
 =====================
 
+** Shorter startup times
+   By a couple of small fixes we could diminish the startup
+   time by 10-30%.
+
+** stripped-scsh.image
+   In addition to the standard heap image scsh.image, scsh now ships
+   with an additional image stripped-scsh.image. This image contains
+   the same code as the standard image but has almost all debugging
+   information removed. It is therefore much smaller (2.5 MB vs. 4.5
+   MB) which also allows shorter startup times. The image is intended
+   for use in scripts but not for interactive development. See the
+   manual for more information.
+
+** md5 support
+   The package md5 contains a bunch of procedures to compute md5
+   checksums.
+
+** API changes
+   select and select! are supported again

    5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 16, 17 and 19. See http://srfi.schemers.org/ for a
