Maxima 5.9.0.9rc1 available



The first release candidate for Maxima 5.9.1, aka Maxima 5.9.0.9rc1, is
now available from the Sourceforge site. I have uploaded source files in
tar.gz, zip and source rpm formats as well as i386 rpms. A windows
installer will be added when it becomes available.

Please test and then tell me that we are ready to release 5.9.1. (I
suppose problems should be reported, too...)

The web pages need to be updated.
