duty-roaster-0.0.79.95:
=======================

Summary:
========
	
	Duty Roaster is a program for managing and generating duty rotas in a
	userfriendly way licenced under the GPL. You can obtain it from
	http://sourceforge.net/projects/duty-roaster.

Changes:
========

	- The program now has a misc menu, containing some information about
	  the authors and a translation-log window.

	- Fixed a bug which caused the translation module to reject valid
	  translation files in win32.  

	- Bug fixes, code improvements - read the ChangeLog for details.
	
Remarks:
========

	- Savefiles from version 0.0.79.93 and 0.0.79.94 remain valid.

	- If you want to experiment with translations, watch out for
		~/lang.txt if you are working under linux
		PROGRAMM_PATH\lang.txt if you are working under win32.
	  Open lang.txt with a text editor, add your translations and restart
	  the program. Open Misc->(Translation Log) to check if your
	  modifications were accepted. Make sure that the files are encoded as
	  UTF-8, rather than ASCII, ISO-8859, or others.
	
	- A gentoo ebuild for the new version will be available soon on the
	  project's homepage on sourceforge.  

Dependencies:
=============

	- gtkmm-2.6.2 [http://www.gtkmm.org]. 2.4.x will not work ! 
	
	- boost-1.32.0 [http://www.boost.org/] with thread support enabled
	  (gentoo users should emerge boost with the 'threads' useflag).
	  
	- sqlite-2.8.14 [http://www.sqlite.org/] or higher, but not a 3.x
	  version (allthogh that may work). Switching to sqlite-3.x is at
	  least planned.

Planned for 0.0.80:
======================

	- Needs should be defined for timeperiods, not permanently.

	- There should be the possibility to create new workers with arbitrary
	  starting hour balances.

	- Switch to sqlite-3.x.
