+GRASS GIS 6.4.1 released
+12 April 2011
+http://grass.osgeo.org
+
+We are pleased to announce that a new stable version of GRASS GIS
+6.4.1 has been released. This release fixes some bugs discovered
+in the 6.4.0 source code and a few new features (over 560 updates
+to the source code with respect to 6.4.0 have been added). As a
+stable release 6.4 will enjoy long-term support.
+
+GRASS 6.4 brings a number of exciting enhancements to the GIS. Our
+new wxPython graphical user interface (wxGUI) is debuted, Python
+is now a fully supported scripting language, and for the first
+time since its inception with a port from the VAX 11/780 in 1983,
+GRASS runs natively also on a non-UNIX based platform: MS-Windows.
+
+GRASS differs from many other GIS software packages used in
+the academic and professional worlds in that it is developed and
+distributed by users for users, mostly on a volunteer basis, in the
+open, and is given away for free. The source code is also freely
+available, allowing for immediate customization, examination of
+the underlying algorithms, addition of new features, and faster
+patching of bugs.
