* Introduction
0.200 is a huge release with more than 1700 commits since the last major version
released in January 2016. Actually it is so big that we jumped directly from
version 0.105 to version 0.200, so don't panic if you think you missed all the
versions since 0.105 :-)
This first newsletter describes with details the main changes introduced in the
new version and gives some explanation about the various choices made during the
last months.
The (boring) complete list of changes can be found in the file =CHANGELOG.org=
at the root of the Git repository.
