This release looks great!
However there still seems to be some dependancy probs in the rpms that
might confuse some users.
[root@ant ant]# rpm -Uvh abiword-gnome-0.99.3-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
libgal.so.7 is needed by abiword-0.99.3-1
[root@ant lib]# ls -al libgal*
<snip other libgal symlinks>
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Jan 21 09:48 libgal.so.19 ->
libgal.so.19.0.0*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 992804 Dec 19 17:29
libgal.so.19.0.0*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Jan 24 10:44 libgal.so.7 ->
libgal.so.19*
So, it claims to require libgal.so.7 but works fine when sym-linked to
libgal.so.19 Perhaps this check needs to be relaxed.
then....
[root@ant ant]# rpm -Uvh --nodeps abiword-gnome-0.99.3-1.i386.rpm
Preparing... #################################### [100%]
package abiword-0.99.1-1 (which is newer than abiword-0.99.3-1) is
already installed
Huh?
so....
[root@ant ant]# rpm -Uvh --nodeps --force
abiword-gnome-0.99.3-1.i386.rpm
Preparing... #################################### [100%]
1:abiword #################################### [100%]
And all works well. (for me anyway).

Release Notes for AbiWord 0.99.3 aka bilder-R-vi
The AbiWord team continues to make great progress towards 1.0. In the 4
weeks since 0.99.2 was released we've closed tons of bugs, completed RTF
import/export, added great new image handling facilities and have made
AbiWord significantly faster.
Users may particularly enjoy the new Script plugin which imports the
output of any program into AbiWord, the AbiGimp plugin to enable image
editing using the GIMP and the image resize dialog.
Finally users may rest easy in the knowledge that Abiword uses the
latest (fixed)zlib in this release.
