+<h1>Nemerle 0.9.1 is out</h1>
+
+<p>
+  This release brings the long-awaited indentation syntax and a few 
+  bugfixes.
+</p>
+<p>
+  About 150 SVN commits were made since the last release.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Availability</h2>
+<p>
+  As usual we provide a source code release and a number of binary
+  packages.  Starting with this release we provide a generic Unix binary
+  installer, similar to the one Mono has (but text-mode only).  RPM and
+  MSI packages are also ready.  DEB package is on its way.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Language changes</h2>
+With the -i option compiler can now recognize indentation based syntax.
+More info at <a href="http://nemerle.org/Indentation-based_syntax">the wiki page</a>.
+
+<h2>Additions</h2>
+<ul>
+    <li> MSBuild task.</li>
+    <li> Marcin Grzeskowiak contributed a new matching compiler as a part
+      of his MSc thesis. It is not yet enabled by default, as we're
+      still testing it.  You can try it with -new-matching option,
+      but beware -- it can still contain some nasty bugs!
+    </li>
+  </ul>
+
+  
+
+  <h2>The library</h2>

+  <li> Logging and accessor macros were improved.</li>
