GNU Nano 1.0 Released

ALBANY, NY - March 22, 2001 - The GNU nano development team
today released version 1.0 of their flagship (and only) product, the
GNU nano text editor.  GNU nano brings a friendly and intuitive editing
environment to users of Unix(1)-like operating systems.
	"We have worked very hard to provide a solid and easy to use
editor for both the casual and power user.  With version 1.0, users
can expect a completely bug free and emotionally fulfilling text editing
experience (2)," blurts Chris Allegretta, program maintainer. "GNU nano
follows in the software industry's rich tradition of 'point-zero' releases
which contain absolutely no bugs whatsoever."
	GNU nano has won the highly coveted "Best Pico clone whose name
begins with 'n' and ends with 'o'" award two years in a row.  More
fictional awards are expected to be awarded soon.
	The GNU nano development team is located throughout the United
States, Canada and Europe.  For more information, please visit their web
site at http://www.nano-editor.org or email nano@nano-editor.org.  The
GNU Project pages are located at http://www.gnu.org.
