Hello,

we are pleased to announce the availability of Gpg4win 2.1.1-beta1.

The download is available via the usual download page:

        http://www.gpg4win.org/download.html

This is a maintenance release with some relevant security updates. This beta 
version is designed to test these changes before Gpg4win 2.1.1 is released. 
Please send feedback to our Gpg4win user or developer mailing lists.

Background:
The collected Gpg4win donations (since 2006: about 1950 EUR) are not 
sufficient to fund the regular maintenance of Gpg4win. To keep Gpg4win alive, 
we are now forced to bring out a new Gpg4win maintenance release: 
2.1.1-beta1. We have funded part of the costs by Gpg4win donations. The 
effort for this release by g10 Code and Intevation amounts to about 70 hours.

We thank very much all Gpg4win donors who made ​​this release possible. Please 
help the Gpg4win initiative and support the maintenance and development of 
Gpg4win with your donation! Thank you!
