# To subscribers of the xforms list from "T.C. Zhao" <tc_zhao@yahoo.com> :
Hi all,
sorry for the delay in releasing the new doc. The changes from v0.89 are
minimal. Hopefully over the holiday, I can finally clean it up a bit and
release it.
For the past a few months, things've been tough. The day job has been a 24hr
thing, literally sometimes. So just please bear with me for a bit longer.
