########################
31.08.2003 version 1.0-rc1
- implemented "reread tags from file" functionality in consistency check
- started improving the icons, thanks to Sandra (to be finished...)
- added the possibility to ignore case in filename check (tick the checkbox in the settings)
- checking for existence of directory "categories" before saving, creating it if necessary
- added possibility to select files or m3u files to import into database,
  see Database menu (as an alternative to recursively scanning a directory)
- added "Recent Additions" folder, yammi switches to that folder after scanning for songs
- moved all classes from mp3info into top-level folder (due to compilation issues)
- "dequeue" called from playlist now only dequeues the selected entry (if song more than once in playlist)
- replaced my personal email address with the new mailing list address (yammi-developer@lists.sourceforge.net)
- added a "Go to folder..." functionality in song context menu to quickly go to corresponding album/artist/genre folder
- added a "Load .m3u into category" menu entry with the corresponding functionality
- current autoplay mode now also gets saved for next session
- hopefully fixed problems with reading/writing genre tags with id3v2
- fixed problems when renaming files which are currently enqueued in xmms
- fixed setting baseDir correctly (preferences got read from /written to different locations)
- fixed the sorting bug when hiding columns, correctly sorting last played "never" to end of list
- fixed a bug when invoking "Play now" on multiple songs (first songs were not enqueued)
- fixed renaming files on windows file system when filenames are identical except case
- fixed compilation issue when configuring with --disable-id3lib and --disable-xmms
  (undefined reference to `g_strconcat' / `g_free')
- fixed: file permissions are now preserved when modifying ogg tags
- fixed: deleting or moving a file should work, even if directory ends with slash



########################
14.05.2003 version 0.8.2
- "longest not played" now chooses randomly from the candidate songs (if more than one song with same timestamp)
- switch to/from playlist with toolbutton or keyboard (CTRL-P)

- new configure.in from Bob
- implemented a "partly checked" icon & behavior for "Insert Into" category
- songs already in a category won't be added again

- implemented a dummy player class (if no media player available, easier code maintenance)
- dialog for clearing playlist improved
- check for existing file on grabAndEncode
- changed the executable in the grabAndEncode script from "notlame" to "lame" (as this is the executable on my system)
- fixed writing ogg tag album ("testing album" bug)
- fixed behavior (song order) when using EnqueueAsNext/PlayNow on more than one song
- added EnqueueRandom and EnqueueAsNextRandom (enqueue with a random order of songs)
- added "Shuffle Playlist" as an item into new menu "Playlist"
- removed "current song" toolbutton and functionality (was too buggy and crappy)
- added a workaround for noatun stops playing if crossfading set to 0 (but creates pauses between songs)
- added viewing/hiding toolbars via view menu + saving to next session (but not position yet)
- added hiding of columns via view menu + saving to next session
- adding to media: entries already existing on that media won't be added

    (=> enabling to more easily support other players)

######################
14.12.2002 version 0.7
- fixed a lot of bugs that prevented compiling on many systems:
  - replaced stdlib io functions with the corresponding QT file access methods
  - added "using namespace std" declarations (needed by gcc3.x compiler)
  - conformance to stricter rules of gcc3.2
  => successfully reported to compile with gcc3.2/QT3.1/KDE3.1rc3
  => successfully compiled on sourceforge's compile farm on Linux 2.4/RedHat 7.3
- added --disable-ogglibs and --disable-id3lib configure switches to disable linking aginst these libs
- added a (experimental and primitive) autoplay function for categories
- added writing of ogg tags (beta-status)
  (only the tags corresponding to id3v1 tags will be written, other tags will get lost)
- improved system for checking consistency of database or a selection of songs
- added a dialog box for configuring the consistency check
- improved "Burn to media" function: takes size of existing files into account
- Yammi now waits for Xmms to have started when it is not running yet
- many minor improvements and bugfixes
- for mp3 tag scanning, use of newest id3lib (3.8.2) is recommended!
  (problems of not recognized tags with older versions (probably, if both id3v1 and id3v2 tags present)

##########################
28.9. 2002 version 0.7beta
- improved playlist management: last played song now also gets deleted from playlist when xmms stops
- started supporting session management (saving database before shutdown)

- cleaned up menu structure
- added support to extract header from ".wav" files to extract length and bitrate from wave files
- column order and position in songlistview gets remembered, saved and restored
- maybe still not working correct: restoring session geometry:
  => reported x/y-position *sometimes* gets shifted by size of decorations...strange!
- new icon set for media player controls (ie. currently only xmms controls)
- added basic support for .ogg files (Thanks to Philip Scott!):
  - only reading ogg tags, no saving implemented yet

- new mechanism to read id3 tags (now using id3lib, see http://www.id3lib.org)
- improved plugin configuration: uniformly dealing with song and playlist plugins
- added a dialog for scanning harddisk and media, allowing:
  - option to check existence of files in Yammi's database, if necessary update or delete the entry
  - scan arbitrary files (eg. ".mp3 *.ogg *.wav", ...anything you like)
    (however, only on mp3 files and (new!) ogg files Yammi will be able to read tag information)
- successfully tested dcop commands for sending a song to noatun / shutting down kde in a regular way
  => see new plugin page on homepage for examples
