GF 3.9 Release Notes
August 2017
==Installation==
See the [download page http://www.grammaticalframework.org/download/index.html].
==What's new==
The [GF repository on GitHub https://github.com/GrammaticalFramework/GF/]
is now our master source repository, not just a read-only mirror.
Bug reports and feature requests can be submitted to the
[issue tracker https://github.com/GrammaticalFramework/GF/issues],
and we also accept pull requests.
Over 200 changes have been pushed to the source repository since
[the release of GF 3.8 release-3.8.html] in June 2016.
===GF compiler and run-time library===
====New features and notable changes====
- Support for language-specific depencency configurations (in addition to abstract syntax based ones); see ``help vd`` in the GF shell
- An experimental support for sentence lookup which makes it possible
to find the sentence from the grammar that matches best a set of keywords.
Right now it is usable only with controlled languages since it might be
very innefficient for some grammars.
- A new .NET binding for the GF runtime is available.
- The API in the Java binding is extended and it covers more from
the full functionality of the C runtime.
====Changes of interest to compiler developers====
- The compiler source code has been updated for compatibility with GHC 8.2.1.
===Resource Grammar Library===
- New languages:
- Icelandic
- Norwegian Nynorsk
- API now usable for incomplete languages via ``Missing`` modules:
implemented for Arabic and Latin.
- Punctuation with ``BIND`` and ``SOFT_BIND`` tokens for a number of languages
- Various fixes for several languages.
- Various fixes in the translation dictionaries.
===Apps and Cloud services===
- PGF service: support for language-specific depencency configurations in
``command=deptree``.
