duty-roaster-0.0.80:
=======================

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:
========

	- duty-roaster now uses sqlite-3.2.x.

	- Requirements are no longer specified globaly, but for user defined
	  time periods.

	- Shift and weekday prefernces regulators are no loger coupled.
	  Instead they display the weighted average of the current adjustment
	  to help the user in adjusting them reasonable.

	- It is now possible to assign user defined external shifts to modify
	  the hour balance of employees directly.

	- Bug fixes and lots of code improvements - read the ChangeLog for details.
	
Remarks:
========

	- Savefiles from older versions are invalid.

	- 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] or higher. 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-3.2.x [http://www.sqlite.org/].

Planned for 0.0.81:
======================

	- Not clear yet.

	  and the translation module.

	  handicappedd people for funding this project.
