+    What do you expect from a sampler called LinuxSampler? Exactly: that it
+    <link ref="screenshots/win32_premiere.png">conquers the Windows
+    world</link>. This is the first official release of our applications for
+    the Windows platform, providing a convenient all-in-one installer tagged
+    "20071207". Supported drivers for this new system are so far: MME for
+    MIDI and ASIO for audio. Needless to say that there still might be
+    plenty of issues on Windows. Also note that the instruments database
+    feature is not ported yet. Have a look at the
+    <link ref="windows.html">Windows HOWTO</link> for a smooth start.
+    Beside this first Windows release, this is merely a bugfix release, i.e.
+    fixing a serious crash in LinuxSampler. Retrieving instrument names from
+    .gig files with the frontends is now much faster, so better keep that
+    option always on in QSampler from now on. With gigedit you can now edit
+    multiple (dimension) regions simultaniously. JSampler is finally able
+    to retrieve instrument names of instrument files and even remotely from
+    another machine, beside minor cosmetics like a total stream count
+    and volume displayed in dB, as well as couple bug fixes. QSampler gave
+    Qt3 an official funeral and is finally completely ported to Qt4. A lot
+    of the QSampler code base has changed due to this. So you still might
+    encounter bugs. Beside that the device management dialog received couple
+    of bug fixes.

+    As you might have noticed, we had issues with our linuxsampler.org DNS
+    names in the last two days, because it was dependent to a foreign server
+    out of our control. We just addressed this issue and finally completely
+    moved the DNS responsibility to our own servers to avoid this happening
+    again. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused!
