+<a href="download.htm" target=wxmain>wxWindows 2.1.11</a> is now available for Windows, Motif and GTK.
+The final 2.2 public release will have further bug fixes, but 2.1.11 is pretty stable - a big improvement
+on 2.0.1 and better than previous snapshots. Here are a few of the features that make it well worth the upgrade:<P>
+
+<ul>
+<li> Numerous bug fixes and consistency improvements.
+<li> Further samples.
+<li> Factoring out of some code into base classes, for easier
+  maintenance.
+<li> Ability to compile library in console (non-GUI) mode.
+<li> Integration of wxHTML widget and help controller into
+  wxWindows. wxHTML allows HTML viewing and printing (wxGTK
+  and wxMSW, partial support in wxMotif).
+<li> New classes wxChrono, wxDialUpManager, wxFontEnumerator,
+  wxWizard, wxStaticLine, etc.
+<li> wxShowTip for showing 'startup tips' to the user.
+<li> wxSocket and wxThread classes rewritten.
+<li> New, consistent drag and drop API (not wxMotif).
+<li> Better-looking dialogs in wxGTK; native message box used
+  in wxMotif.
+<li> wxSizers reimplemented and used to specify window layout
+  for some generic dialogs.
+<li> New, more sophisticated wxGrid class (in beta). The old grid
+  class can still be used.
+<li> Text alignment options in wxStaticText.
+<li> wxImage class extended to read PCX and GIF files.
+<li> Documentation improvements.
+<li> Revised configure system for wxGTK and wxMotif; tmake-based
+  system for generating wxMSW makefiles.
+<li> Installer for Windows as alternative to zip archives.
+</ul>
