Nedit 5.6 has been released (?)

[Ganoe, George G. (LARC-D319)]

Bert,

     The active branch in the git conversion archive is labeled "rel-5-6", but it
is tied to the CVS as "remotes/origin/BETA-5-6", which is probably the
BETA-5-6 you are seeing.

     If I had the time, and knew what to do I would be willing to help get the
release put together.  Of course those are two BIG if's.  I don't have a lot
of time, and I really have no idea what is needed to get a release ready.

                                  George

Please, don't be quiet. Maybe such headups lets the ball rolling
again. Anyway, I don't see a REL-5-6 branch either. I only know of the
BETA-5-6 branch.
