+<h1><img src="../../images/ghost64.gif" width=56 height=64>GPL Ghostscript 8.56</h1>
+<hr>
+
+<p>
+Artifex Software, Inc. is pleased to announe the release of GPL 
+Ghostscript 8.60. This is the first in a new stable series.
+
+<p>
+The major milestone of this release is a merge from the ESP Ghostscript 
+fork, used to support the CUPS printing system. This means that free 
+operating systems can now ship a single copy of upstream Ghostscript 
+with their releases. Thanks to Till Kamppeter and Mike Sweet for making 
+this possible.
+
+<p>
+This release also includes numerous important bug fixes over the 
+previous stable versions, as well as improvements to performance, memory 
+footprint, shading and image handling. We recommend this upgrade to all 
+free users.
+
+<p>
+<strong>Note:</strong> The default device in the gcc build is 
+temporarily the 
+'bbox' 
+device instead of the usual 'x11' device. This is a side effect of the 
+device modularization patch from ESP Ghostscript which could not be 
+corrected before release. To recover the old default behaviour add 
+'-sDEVICE=x11' to the command line.
+
+<p>
