Apologies for cross-posting; please see the press release for the latest VuFind 
release below.

Note that SourceForge seems to be a bit slow mirroring files today, so 
apologies in advance if download links aren't working right away; hopefully 
they will catch up soon. You can always grab the latest code from GitHub if 
necessary.

As always, please let me know if you have any questions or problems!

thanks,
