[Gnumed-announce] GNUmed 1.8.0 Release

[Karsten Hilbert]

Hello all,

I am glad to be able to announce the immediate availability
of the GNUmed 1.8.0 Release. This is a cross-over between
maintenance and new development.

The main focus lies on the Python 3 port. This version runs
against the same database as does version 1.7. It can
therefore be run _concurrently_ with that version.

Version 1.8 requires Python 3 / wxPython 4.

It features the following bug fixes and improvements:
