This is the first major upgrade to RMagick since last August. The big  
changes are much improved documentation and additional methods based on  
the latest ImageMagick 6.0.0 beta and GraphicsMagick 1.1 snapshots. I’ve  
also added a couple of methods for retrieving EXIF data.

RMagick is an interface to the ImageMagick ([www.imagemagick.org](http://www.imagemagick.org)) and  
GraphicsMagick ([www.graphicsmagick.org](http://www.graphicsmagick.org)) image processing libraries.  
RMagick is available at RubyForge. Visit [http://rmagick.rubyforge.org](http://rmagick.rubyforge.org).
