Hi,

After almost on year since the last major version, and many last-minute 
bug fixes, Gambas 3.6 has just been officially released!

This new release fixes 459 bugs, adds 465 new features and 22 optimizations.

Some of the main changes are:

- A new open project dialog in the IDE.
- Support for session management.
- Offline help automatically downloaded from the wiki.
- Single-file mode for the IDE.
- Support for transparent windows.
- Shadowed text drawing routines.
- New controls: Spinner, SwitchButton, DirBox, FontBox.
- gb.gtk3 is a new GUI component based on GTK+ 3.
- gb.inotify is a new component to monitor filesystem events with Linux 
inotify interface.
- gb.markdown is a new component that implements the Gambas Markdown syntax.
- The gb.net.smtp component has been entirely rewritten in Gambas and fixed.

See the Release Notes for the list of all new features and bug fixes.

Now let's start hacking for Gambas 3.7. The main goal now is making a 
dedicated Gambas software repository.

In the meantime, enjoy it!
