The GNS3 0.5 release is available. It includes bugs fixes and new features:

• Possibility to load .net files of other users (provided that there is a registered IOS image with the same model as the one used in the NET file).
• New detailed tooltips for nodes.
• A minimalist wizard raised when the configuration file is empty.
• A button to insert a picture on the scene.
• Decorative node support for creating network diagrams.
• Ghostios is now supported on remote hypervisors.
• A symbol manager with library support (a howto to create a symbol library will be released).
• Z values can be changed for annotations and inserted pictures.
• Automatic load-balancing on external hypervisors (choose multiple external hypervisors when recording an IOS image).
• New option to bind the hypervisor manager with an address/name other than 'localhost': useful for labs which use local and remote hypervisors.
• The DMG package includes two Dynamips binaries, one for Tiger and one for Leopard

Light simulated host support has been postponed to a future release. More information about future features can be found in the TODO .

We hope you will enjoy this release.
