From the AbiWord team:

AbiWord 1.0.2 aka “Hold me, love me, embed me” is now available
for general consumption.

After extensive efforts at bugfixing as well as a few new
features, we’re proud to announce 1.0.2 as the latest release for
pure satisfaction. Developers are hacking away on the next big
milestone and in the meantime we’ll continue to deliver solid
dependability through 1.0.x releases.

Most notable:

  • AbiWord can now be embedded in other GNOME applications
    (Evolution, Gnumeric)
  • Internationalization support has undergone a great deal of work
    by both translaters and coders.
  • RTF and LaTeX import/export enhancements.
  • Bugs 3301, 3171, 3215, 2223, 3332.
  • Enhanced documentation.
  • Fixes and enhancements in the AbiGimp, AbiMagick, AbiPaint, and
    GDict plugins.

Full release notes are available at [the link below].

We’d like to thank everyone who contributed to making AbiWord
1.0.2 a rock solid, lightning fast, universal (as close as it gets
anyway) word processor.
