+ <h3>2017-10: GNU Taler v0.5.0 released</h3>
+ <p>
+ We are happy to announce the release of GNU Taler v0.5.0.
+ The main new feature is customer tipping, which allows
+ merchants to pay small rewards directly into a customer's
+ wallet. Technical improvements include numerous performance
+ improvements and bug fixes, as well as a new, simpler to use
+ API for merchants that also enables the implementation of
+ GNU Taler wallets on platforms that do not support
+ WebExtensions.
+ <br>
+ The Chrome and Chromium wallets are available for download
+ via the App store. The exchange, merchant backend and bank
+ components are on the GNU FTP mirrors.
+ </p>
