The Interchange Development Group is pleased to announce the release
of Interchange 5.8.1.  This release is the latest in the stable
branch of Interchange 5.8 and includes a number of important bug fixes.

A full list of changes between 5.8.0 and this version are available at:

http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.8/WHATSNEW

This release includes fixes to the Authorize.Net payment gateway, as
well as fixes for serious bug in the allocation of sessions, which could
result in a user's session being lost after the first page load, losing
potentially crucial information such as the original HTTP_REFERER.

We recommend that all Interchange sites be upgraded to this new version 
after testing in each individual environment. Please read the UPGRADE 
document for information about upgrade procedures and a few incompatible 
changes introduced by this release.

The software is available here:
