Revelation 0.4.4 "Is this not a reasonable place to park?" released



Revelation is a password manager for the GNOME 2 desktop, released under
the GNU GPL license. It stores all your accounts and passwords in a
single, secure place, and gives you access to it through a user-friendly
graphical interface.

This release adds a GNOME panel applet for searching and browsing
accounts. It also fixes a crash when loading missing theme icons, and
has quite a few minor usability improvements and bugfixes.

On september 1st I am going to Asia for 6 months, and I won't be doing
any work on Revelation during this period. If necessary I will try to do
another release before I leave, so please report any bugs or suggestions
for improvements in the next couple of weeks.
