+<b>Announcement:</b> GnuCash 5.2 Released
+2023-06-25
+
+<h2>GnuCash 5.3 Released</h2>
+
+<p>The GnuCash development team announces GnuCash 5.3, the fourth release in the stable 5.x series. This is a snap release to fix the bug listed below.</p>
+
+<h4>Between 5.2 and 5.3, the following bugfixes were accomplished:</h4>
+<ul>
+<li><a href="https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798967">Bug 798967 - Cannot Save to Any Path After Upgrading to 5.2 Fix inverted if statement condition for save success flag</a></li>
+</ul>
+<h4>The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:</h4>
+<ul>
+ <li>Some memory cleanup by Chris Lam.</li>
+ <li>Missing from the 5.2 release notes is that Chris streamlined the
+ transaction scrubbing so that each transaction gets scrubbed
+ only once. This improves--in some cases substantially--the time
+ to load and to run Check and Repair.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>New and Updated Translations: Dutch, French, Hungarian, Italian, Portuguese</p>
+
+<a href="https://hosted.weblate.org/engage/gnucash/">Help translate GnuCash on Weblate</a>
