Offpunk 3.0 released

Version3.0 of the Offpunkoffline-first, command-line web, Gemini, andGopherbrowser has been released. Notable changes in this release includeintegration of the unmerdifylibrary to "remove cruft" from web sites, the xkcdpunkstandalone tool for viewing xkcdcomics in the terminal, and a cookies command to enablebrowsing web sites (such as LWN.net) while being logged in.

Something wonderful happened on the road leading to 3.0: Offpunkbecame a true cooperative effort. Offpunk 3.0 is probably the firstrelease that contains code I didn't review line-by-line. Unmerdify (byVincent Jousse), all the translation infrastructure (by thealways-present JMCS), and the community packaging effort are areas forwhich I barely touched the code.

So, before anything else, I want to thank all the people involvedfor sharing their energy and motivation. I'm very grateful for everycontribution the project received. I'm also really happy to see "oldnames" replying from time to time on the mailing list. It makes mefeel like there's an emerging Offpunk community where everybody cancontribute at their own pace.

There were a lot of changes between 2.8 and 3.0, which probablymeans some new bugs and some regressions. We count on you, yes, you!,to report them and make 3.1 a lot more stable. It's as easy at typing"bugreport" in offpunk!
