fpGUI v1.0 is available
========================
I'm glad to announce the 1.0 release of fpGUI. This has been over a
years worth of development, so a complete list of changes will be
to big to list here.

Here are just some highlights:
- Improvements to the UI (forms) Designer
- Lot of DocView improvements (Bookmark management, Image decoding
support in INF files, RichView component improvements etc.)
- AggPas integration as an experimental backend. AggPas is a 2D
graphics library implemented in 100% Pascal, and includes some
amazing features that really enhances the quality of fpGUI's
canvas class.
- New example apps, and improvements to existing demo apps like
Maximus and Debug Server.
etc.

For more details, run any of the following commands:

git log --oneline v0.8..v1.0 (console viewer)
or
gitk v0.8..v1.0 (gui viewer)

---------
An archived source download of fpGUI, and pre-built binaries for
DocView (fpGUI's Documentation Viewer) can be found at the following
