The Lazarus team is glad to announce the 0.9.28 release. This release is based on fpc 2.2.4.

This release can be downloaded from the SourceForge download page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/

Highlights / Major changes:

LCL:
*LCL now uses gtk2 as default widgetset on Linux and BSD *Windows CE: Implemented TCalendar, TFloatSpinEdit, TOpenDialog and TSaveDialog
*TFrame support. Visually nesting in the IDE.
*TMonitor class: multi-monitor support
*New components: TShellTreeView, TShellListView and TFilterComboBox *Refactoring of LCL reduced minimum size of executables by about 15%

IDE:
*New IDE options dialog combines environments, editor, codetools, code explorer, debugger and help options.
*Application icon has been added to the Project Options *Many source editor improvements like display of "double width" fonts (Eastern, Japanese, Chinese, Arabic, ...), better code folding, highlighting, syncro editing, persistent blocks ... *Codetools: removing empty methods, block completion, update references when renaming a unit
*Debugger: assembler windows, easier exception handling, breakpoint properties

And thousands of fixes and smaller changes. The list of changes can be found here:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_0.9.28_release_notes

Known issues:
- Debian packages: the default lazarus directory is wrong. The IDE detects the right one and asks on first start. Just click Ok.
- When compiling a test application the compiler can not find project1.lrs. Workaround: save the project before compiling OR create an empty file /tmp/project1.lrs.
