As some may have seen on news.gnome.org or freshmeat, version 0.93 of Dia is now officially out there. Nothing different from 0.93-pre3 (except some translations, I think), but if you're of the kind who doesn't like prereleases, go to http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/dia/0.93 and get the new

In three days, we plan to send out the first prerelease for Dia version 0.94. Any patches with new features that you want to get in should be posted before then (a reminder of any that have been posted and not applied would not be a bad idea). After then, we will make 0.94-pre1, and only bugfixes
