GNOME Structured File Library is a utility library for reading and writing structured file formats. Support for MS OLE2 streams is complete, as is zip import.

There is also support for document metadata and some initial work on decompressing VBA streams in OLE files for future conversion to other languages.

This library replaces libole2 and is used in gnumeric, mrproject, abiword, libwv2, koffice. It is also part of the AAF format.

What's New in This Release:
The ODF support in the thumbnailer's schema has been enabled.
Handling of transparent backgrounds in ODF thumbnails has been fixed.
Handling of default namespaces in libxml sax wrappers has been fixed.
This release handles odd OLE2 files from palmcalc.
--mandir=... works.
A crash on parsing completely empty XML is avoided.
This release crudely avoids producing invalid XML by dropping certain control characters on the floor.
