Labyrinth 0.2 "Get the Picture?"

[Don Scorgie <DonScorgie Blueyonder co uk>]

Hi,

I'm pleased to announce the release of Labyrinth v0.2 "Get the
Picture?".  This is the second in the "Out of Nothing" series of
releases, which will result (at some point) in a V1.0 release.

What is it?
-----------

Labyrinth is a mind-mapping tool for GNOME.  It is written in python and
uses cairo for its drawing.

Screenshots (and a little more info) is available at its homepage:
http://www.gnome.org/~dscorgie/labyrinth.html

What's new?
-----------

New Features:
 * Base thought class for future thought types to derive from
 * Add new document to docs describing (current) file format
 * Add i18n framework.  No translations yet thought
 * Add Image Thought for adding images from external files
 * Add image mode for adding an image 
 * Add Drawing Thought for simple drawings
 * Add drawing mode for drawing in drawing thoughts
 * Both Image and Drawing Thoughts are resizable by dragging corners /
edges
 * New (crappy) Labyrinth icon
 * Add menu entry (shows up in Applications->Office)
 * Set window icon to new Labyrinth icon in Browser and map windows
 * All thought types now have slightly rounded corners
 * When resizing thoughts, change the cursor to reflect this
 * Links now originate at the centre of thoughts, making them look
prettier

Fixes:
 * Fix uninstalled mode
 * Only allow 'Open' and 'Delete' to be used when a map is selected in
Browser window
 * Make removal of links work properly
 * Various code cleanups (Thanks to Rogi Lemar)
 * Make defs get generated properly (From Alacarte)
 * Only redraw every 1/40th second when required to stop hammering X
server
 * Draw links behind thoughts for added solidity
