Hello,

We are pleased to announce Guile-Gnome 2.16.4, the next maintenance
release for the 2.16 series.

* Guile-Gnome 2.16.4 release tarball GPG signature [*]:

        http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/grip/guile-gnome/guile-gnome-platform-2.16.4.tar.gz
        http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/grip/guile-gnome/guile-gnome-platform-2.16.4.tar.gz.sig

	Special Notes:

	[-]	As I'm updating Guile-Gnome's web pages for this release, I
		still have a pending authorization request to upload the release files. So,
		in the mean time, I uploaded them under Grip's dowload area, which explains
		the download url refers to grip/guile-gnome instead of just guile-gnome/...

	[-]	Downloads will redirect to your nearest mirror site. Files on
		mirrors may be subject to a replication delay of up to 24 hours. In case of
		problems use:

			http://download-mirror.savannah.gnu.org/releases/grip/guile-gnome

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

        gpg --verify guile-gnome-platform-2.16.4.tar.gz.sig

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:

        gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys A3057AD7

and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.
