Licq 1.3.6-rc1

[Anders Olofsson]

The first release candidate for Licq 1.3.6 is now packed and ready.

Licq 1.3.6 contains many bugfixes, some new features and a new Qt4
version of the GUI plugin which has gone through a make over since it
branched of from the old Qt-Gui.

Package is available for download:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=254&package_id=273

Release notes:
http://www.licq.org/wiki/DeveloperArea/ReleaseNotes/1.3.6

Unfortunately the updated readme and changelog didn't make it into this
package, they will be included in the next release candidate.
In the meanwhile, you can grab them directly from svn:
http://www.licq.org/browser/trunk/licq/README
http://www.licq.org/browser/trunk/licq/doc/CHANGELOG

As always, if you find any bugs, please create a new ticket at
http://www.licq.org/.

/Anders and the rest of the Licq Team!

With the first release candidate out, the trunk is now in code freeze
until the final 1.3.6 package has been built.
That means that until then any commits should fall into one of the
following categories:
* (Important) bugfixes.
* Translations.
* Text files, code comments/style or other documentation.
* Anything else with a really good motivation to why it must be
included in the 1.3.6 release.

If everything looks good, Licq 1.3.6 will be released in two weeks
(2008-09-28), otherwise we will release rc2 instead and try again a week
later.
So translators reading this, now is the time to get your translations up
to date. Please try to get as many translations updated before the 28th
as possible. And don't forget that we have translatable strings in Licq,
Qt-Gui and now also in Qt4-Gui.

With one day left until it's time for the next package I'd have to say
it looks good so far.
The only changes done during these two weeks are the updates of the
readme files and the removal of a compiler warning.

So as far as I can see, we've had no code changes and no reports of
problems that needs to be fixed so it looks like we don't need any more
release candidates.
However, I'm sorry to see that we've had no translations updates either
in these two weeks meaning that only Russian and German translations are
up to date.

If anyone know a problem that would be reason enough to not make a final
1.3.6 now, let me know. Otherwise I will go ahead and make the release
sometime tomorrow (ca 24 hours from now).
If any translator is reading this and want to make a last minute
contribution, let me know how long you need and I could maybe postpone
the release a bit.

Hello.
If you can wait till Monday, I'm going to finish Slovak translation. I
had no time last weeks so I'm working on it this weekend. Thanks.
