Open Dylan 2013.1 released

Dear Dylan Hackers,

It is a pleasure for us to announce a new release of Open Dylan.

We have extensive release notes [1], but this release has been about
iterative improvement rather than major changes.

* A deadlock when using threads on x86-linux has been addressed.
* A crash when using threads on x86-linux has also been addressed.
* A crash from memory corruption on Mac OS X has been fixed.
* Some errors in how the Windows Registry was used have been corrected.
* There have been significant improvements to the documentation.
* A licensing issue with an unacknowledged copyright has been corrected.

Please report problems that you have in our issue tracker,
https://github.com/dylan-lang/opendylan/issues.

You can get it from our website, http://opendylan.org/download/.
On Windows there is an installer, on UNIX systems unpack into ``/opt``.
On 64 bit Linux, you will need to have the Boehm GC installed for our
executables to run. (Ubuntu: ``apt-get install libgc``)

Also, remember that this weekend, July 13-14 is our hack-a-thon [2] and we
hope that you'll consider participating. You may also sign up for the
hack-a-thon at our Google Plus event page [3].

Good luck and happy Dylan hacking!

 - Bruce
