Gnumeric 0.69

[Jody Goldberg <jgoldberg home com>]

Gnumeric 0.69 aka 'diaper duty' is now available.

This is primarily a bug fix release.  Although few new features have
been added, including a Psion importer.  Several of the core
features added in recent releases have been completed.  Frozen panes
and outline mode are now fully functional, with full XL
import/export.  Andreas has been very helpful in reviewing some of
the statistical code.  Most of the remaining elements in this
release are characterisable as behaviour polishing.  It should be
very stable as we run up to 1.0.   As mentioned the feature freeze
date of July has obviously slipped and is now targeted at August.
Work on graphs starting with XL import is progressing and should be
in the next release.
