* New upstream release - Ghostscript 9.08 final release - Background printing (BGPrint) is a new feature allowing an accumulated page clist to be rendered by one or more rendering threads whilst the interpreter (in the "main" thread) continues to accumulate the subsequent page's clist. For certain classes of file this can result in a useful performance increase. See: Banding Parameters (to be activated with the new "-dBGPrint" command line option). - GrayDetection allows suitably written devices to detect "color" input in near neutral tones (i.e. near monochrome) and to convert "on-the-fly" to pure grayscale, whilst retaining the ability to print full color on demand. This is primarily aimed at workflows where saving ink (especially color inks) is required. See: Device Parameters (to be activated with the new "-dGrayDetection" command line option). - Plus the usual round of bug fixes, compatibility changes, and incremental improvements. * debian/rules: Allow also '+' as separator between the upstream version number and any extensions (like "dfsg", "git", ...).
