Moovida 1.0.0 "Antonio Vega"

This is the first version of Moovida, formerly known as Elisa.
It features an innovative beautifully designed, minimal interface giving
unprecedented ease of use for those wishing to interact with their digital
media libraries. It is designed and developed to allow you to find and play
your media within as few 'clicks' as possible.
Due to the major difference with the last version of Elisa, an extensive list
of fixed bugs will not be provided.
Important known bugs:
- 379435: Elisa-core in Moovida 1.0 should be named "moovida" not "elisa" -- in
other words: the tarballs still extract in elisa-* directories, and the
installed executable is still called elisa

Elisa 0.1.7
===========
Barcelona, monday June 25th 2007
The Elisa team is happy to announce the 0.1.7 release of the Elisa
home multimedia system. This will be the last release of the 0.1.x
branch.
We fixed some annoying bugs in this release:
- HAL coldplug (starting Elisa with devices already plugged-in and
mounted) was broken

most of the time for unknown reasons. We now do more checks before
reporting errors to the user.

Elisa 0.1.6
===========
Barcelona, tuesday April 24th 2007
The Elisa team is happy to announce the 0.1.6 release of the Elisa
home multimedia system.
We fixed 2 crasher bugs in this release:
- Under Ubuntu Feisty any attempt to close the elisa's DBus session
would lead to a segfault, preventing the configuration from being written
back to disk. We don't close the dbus session anymore, it's not even
recommended in the DBus developer documentation (and now we know why).
- If you were missing multimedia codecs to play a file, in some cases
GStreamer would fail to parse the resulting error message, leading
to an assertion error and a segfault of the application
Elisa 0.1.5
===========
Barcelona, monday April 16th 2007

- 2 new config options were added for the player to allow the user to
customize how much seconds the player can seek
forward/backward. Options are seek_forward_step and
seek_backward_step.
- a UPnP MediaRenderer plugin has been added, it allows Elisa to
display media available on the network via UPnP. This plugin is
still experimental, hence disabled by default.
- Elisa is now more able to detect missing audio/video codecs and cancel
media playback if anything is missing.
- New Catalan translation by Josep Torra.

appear in xdg compatible menus

configuration, this doesn't work well and need more work

elisa has been started)

skip track currently being played

Since the first release we moved the rendering and widget frameworks
to a separate project nammed Pigment_. The skin has been rewritten
from scratch, its look is not has slick as in the first release, but
we have a better code base and it will improve in the next few
weeks.
Features added in this release:
- DAAP client allowing to browse and play music shared on the local
network by iTunes and similar audio jukebox systems
- Flickr_ browsing support
- New "services" menu which will store futur plugins like weather,
news or the configuration management interface.
