We are happy to announce the immediate release of gnome-hearts version 0.2. In this release the AI engines have been ported from Lua to Python and the C code has been significantly cleaned up. It also adds many new translations (British English, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Malayalam, Russian and Tagalog) and updates all the other languages. The most user-visible change is the addition of the "shooting the sun" rule to the game.
You can download gnome-hearts 0.2 from our download page. The online user documentation and developer guidelines (for those who wish to write new computer opponents) has been updated as well.
