Hi all,

First of all sorry for the low activity on this project lately...
becoming a father and having a lot of work does not help to start a new
project up, but at least we have got over that as much as possible and
now we're about to launch the 0.1 release, featuring:

For the user:
* A better UI (well, in case the first one could be considered a UI)
* Basic configuration management to store account details (auth token)
* Edit details of multiple pictures at the same time
* Added status and improved the progress bar usage to show the status
of async operations, giving a much better feedback to the end user.
* Faster and better user experience.
* Packages for Ubuntu Hardy/Intrepid/Jaunty and Debian Lenny/Squeeze
* Bugfixes and several (minor and major) improvements

For the developer:
* A better (and more easily hackable) code and design.
* No more .glade files, no more gtk-builder-convert :-)
* Avoid libgnome dependency if gtk+ >= 2.14 is present
* Still implemented some parts of the UI (menubar) without GtkBuilder
to keep compatibility with Gtk+ 2.12 (least version supported).

Sorry for the perhaps too messy announcement but this is not actually
the release announcement but just a pre-announcement to tell the world
that some things are going on and that we'll soon (hopefully next week)
have the first usable release of Frogr.

Stay tuned!
Mario
