[Announce] GPA 0.9.8 released

[Werner Koch]

Hello!

We are pleased to announce GPA version 0.9.8.

GPA is a graphical frontend for the GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG).  GPA can
be used for most operations supported by GnuPG using either the OpenPGP
or the S/MIME protocols.  A smartcard manager and a generic user
interface server are included as well.


Noteworthy changes in version 0.9.8 (2015-09-09)
================================================

 * Does start with the clipboard view after a key has been created.

 * Limit the size of dialogs by truncating too long user ids.

 * Make the window frame's close button work as expected.

 * With a decent version of libgpgme the key algorithm and size is
   shown using the GnuPG 2.1 format.
