Capuchin
========
In this release the behavior of AppObject's Update method changed.
It's now always called blocking, therefore the UpdateFinished signal
has been removed.

Download
--------
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/capuchin/0.3/

Homepage
--------
http://capuchin.k-d-w.org/

Changes
-------
     * Fixed bug that downloaded file will be deleted even if it's no 
archive
     * Strip bad characters from object path
     * Added support for Content-Disposition
     * Made AppObject.Update a blocking call.
     * Removed UpdateFinished signal, because it's not needed anymore.

capuchin-glib
=============
Every method of CapuchinGAppObject requires a
GError now. That way the user can handle errors
himself instead of failing more or less silently.
capuchin-glib is now licensed under GPLv3 or later.

Download
--------
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/capuchin-glib/0.1/

Changes
-------
     * capuchin_g_app_object_update works no blocking
     * New function capuchin_g_app_object_update_async
       updates the repository async

Capuchin 0.3.1 and capuchin-glib 0.1.1 released

I hereby ask all writers of software announcements to start with one or two sentences about
what the software is about. This time at least a link to the homepage is included, so the
about page is only two clicks away. Still, it would not make the announcement too verbose, to
include e.g. "Capuchin is a graphical client to control cappuccino machines via a CORBA
interface. The new version features coffee grinder support and fixes an annoying bug regarding
crema of some brazilian espresso blends."

It's worse than that. Even the homepage only says that it `downloads and 
installs plugins'. Plugins for what? How? (There is an `About' page which 
makes things marginally clearer, but I still have no idea why I'd want an 
asynchronous background plugin downloader. How many plugins do you 
normally download, anyway?)
