February 16th, 2010· After 16 development releases and 3 release candidates we finally have Bluefish 2.0.0 ready. The 2.0.0 release is considered the most stable and most feature rich Bluefish release.

One notable change is the syntax scanner which is now almost 2X faster. The language syntax definition files are also improved. Next to that several more translations are completed now, but there are still a lot of translations incomple compared to the stable releases.
June 11th, 2009· The very long Edit menu is reduced, and a new menu Tools is introduced.

· A default mime type for new documents.
· Some small improvements for the autocompletion.
