Hello, folks,

A new version of libtiff package has been released. Sources available
from our FTP site:

 ftp://ftp.remotesensing.org/pub/libtiff/tiff-3.9.0beta.tar.gz
 ftp://ftp.remotesensing.org/pub/libtiff/tiff-3.9.0beta.zip

Release notes are here:

 http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/v3.9.0beta.html

This release adds several major enhancements: robust support for OJPEG
files from Joris Van Damme, JBIG codec support from Lee Howard and
new tiffcrop utility from Richard Nolde.

WARNING: this release DOES NOT support BigTIFF. It should be completely
source and binary compatible with previous libtiff releases up to 3.8.2.
For BigTIFF support grab the 4.x releases or the CVS HEAD snapshot.

Also from this point there will be only bug fixes and small enhancements
in 3.9 branch. All major additions will go into 4.x. If you have
intention to contribute to libtiff, look at 4.x branch.

Best regards,
Andrey
