GnuCash 2.1.0 Released

[Oliver König]

Hello,
will GnuCash 2.2 include the DTAUS Import? DTAUS is the dta format that is 
used by German banks to exchange bank transfer, direct debits etc. 
electronically? Christian Stimming has already already this feature to the 
Gnucash SVN.

Best regards,
Oliver
