= Release 0.2 "it's not a Tomato, it's a fucking Bell pepper" =

To be honest, I am not sure why this release as such a name. I think
it's because Finnish tomatoes are just not like the one I remember.

Some highlight of the new features and changes:
* now use playbin2!
audio configuration is auto-detected
audio pipeline is more flexible than crappy hand-crafted one
* audio is gap-less!
at least, it should be, although this is not very well tested
* better and extensible command line interface
so you can now have "epr mycommand"
"--help" added for sub-commands
* "show" command, to list tags and position/duration
* "seek" command, in % atm
* "list" learned to number output
* bash completion
* FHS compliancy
* removed the stupid debugging pop-up notification
* now even more stable!
* sanitized and simplified the code

So I though it was a good time for a release. My plan for 0.3 are:

* "add" should learn adding by directory recursively, or something
like that (although a power shell could do some magic already)
* re-add a good notification of current played song or a nice UI for
current song (something nice and graphical, you know, bling-bling?)
* save and restore track position for long track or if specificied by
manually ("next --stash" :).
* playback speed rate, almost already there thanks to GStreamer

So that's it! I hope you like it, and comments are welcome!

Enjoy
