Hi Everyone,

I am pleased to announce version 1.0.0 of osm-gps-map, a library
for displaying raster map data from a variety of different sources.

This release adds Gtk+-3.0 support and is the first release in over
a year.

It can be parallel installed with the old 0.7.3 (Gtk+-2 based) release. 

Note: The pkg-config, library name, and include path have all been
bumped to -1.0. Projects depending on osm-gps-map should update
accordingly.

Where to Get It
============
Homepage:
 * http://nzjrs.github.com/osm-gps-map/
Downloads:
 * https://github.com/nzjrs/osm-gps-map/archive/1.0.0.tar.gz
Documentation:
 * http://nzjrs.github.com/osm-gps-map/docs/reference/html/index.html

What is New
============
  * Port to Gtk+-3.0 and update GObject Introspection support
    (thanks to Serge Noiraud)

What Is It
============
osm-gps-map is a Gtk+ widget (and GObject introspection
bindings) for displaying information on a map. It features a simple
API for displaying tracks and points from GPS co-ordinates.

It Currently supports a number of different mapping sources;

 * openstreetmap (default)
 * maps-for-free
 * satellite maps from a number of proprietary providers

It also has the following features;

 * Excellent performance
 * Intelligent caching of maps, including the ability to request a
  specific area of the map to be cached ahead of time
 * Recording of points of interest on the map (and the ability to
  add arbitary pixmaps at those points
 * Drawing and management of multiple GPS track (a line
  showing the history past added points)
 * Automatic centering on new GPS points
 * Adjustable Zoom
 * Includes comprehensive examples (C, Python, JavaScript)
 * Simple, flat API
 * Support for showing additional display layers rendered
  on top of the map
 * Optional on screen display (OSD)

Some differences for the new -1.0 name are required, I believe.

Thanks for your good work.

Regards,
Chris.

Hi all,
I'm having trouble getting through the group filter with a list of small changes related with the new 1.0 name. I've sent John a git diff output separately to see if that gets through.

Regards,
Chris.

Ok, I will have to fix the group settings.

In the mean time, I have applied your diff, thanks.

John

Thanks John,
apologies to all for the multiple posts - I kept getting mail to say my post was rejected by the filter, so I kept trying different ways of saying the same thing, hoping one would get through.

:-)
Chris.
