FoxtrotGPS 1.0.1 is a bug-fix release; issues resolved since 1.0.0 include:

    * Several translations were incomplete in FoxtrotGPS 1.0.0, but
      have now been completed; these are:

        - Hungarian, thanks to György Balló
        - Spanish, thanks to Dailos Franchy
        - French, thanks to Steve Petruzzello

    * A bug causing failed downloads to appear permanently stuck
      has been fixed, thanks to Mikael Berthe.

    * A bug causing large, fast tileset-downloads to hang the
      user interface has been fixed, also thanks to Mikael Berthe.

    * A crash triggered by slow hostname-resolution, found thanks to
      Timo Juhani Lindfors, has been fixed.

    * Several resource-leaks, found thanks to Alexandre Maret, have been fixed.

    * When friend-finder icons are updated to new positions, they are
      now correctly (and consistently) erased from the old positions.
      Thanks to Ben McCarthy for finding this bug.

    * FoxtrotGPS can now be built against libgps 2.96 to support
      use with gpsd 2.96, thanks to Gleb Smirnoff.

    * A standard "--version" command-line flag is now supported.

    * "foxtrotgps --help" no longer fails when no display is available.

    * Various holes in the documentation have been filled--including
      the creation of a HACKING guide for those interested in contributing,
      thanks to Brian H Wilson.



FoxtrotGPS 1.0.0 is the first stable release of FoxtrotGPS since branching
from tangoGPS.

The user-visible features and functionality of this release are very similar
to those of tangoGPS 0.99.3; FoxtrotGPS does, however, include several fixes
and enhancements:

    * There is now a manual included.

    * FoxtrotGPS does not wait for all downloads to complete before
      updating the display with new map-tiles.

    * Thanks to libgps, FoxtrotGPS supports both the new and old
      gpsd protocols transparently.

    * The gpsd server address can now be specified either by name or
      by IP address.

    * The saved gpsd host and port settings are used at startup,
      rather than defaulting back to `localhost:2947' after each restart.

    * Any pending `Load Track...' windows are no longer cancelled by
      geocoding.

    * A bug causing geotagging of photographs to fail for photographs
      taken near lines of latitude or longitude has been fixed.

    * Toolbars now have a style more consistent with other GTK+ applications.

    * The command option-parser has been replaced with a more
      standard and full-featured one:
      - The "-fullscreen" option has been replaced by a more standard
        "--fullscreen" option.
      - A "--display" option is now supported to specify which X11
        display to use.
      - A standard "--help" option is now supported as a means of
        enquiring as to basic information about the program and its
        invocation.

    * A new `detail-scaling' feature has been added to the main menu,
      allowing selection of `fewer/larger details' or `more/smaller details'.

    * GUI elements directing the user to `see tangogps.org for more details'
      have been removed.

    * Several popular utility-scripts are now bundled (see the `contrib'
      directory):
      - convert2gpx, a Perl script by Marcus Bauer that can be used to convert
        the native track-log format to GPX.
      - convert2osm, a Perl script by Marcus Bauer that can be used to convert
        the native track-log format to OpenStreetMap format.
      - georss2foxtrotgps-poi, a Python script by Paul Wise that reads
        GeoRSS points and inserts them into the FoxtrotGPS POI database.

Additionally, packagers and developers should note the following changes:

    * All user-visible references in the program to the package-name
      (including paths to icons and configuration-data) are defined in
      terms of the GNU-standard symbols, "PACKAGE" and "PACKAGE_NAME",
      for easy re-branding.

    * The internationalisation infrastructure has been updated and
      extended using intltool, and now supports translations in
      foxtrotgps.desktop.

    * Issues triggering warnings from the GNU Autotools and the C
      compiler have been have been fixed. It should now be possible to
      build using GCC with CFLAGS="-Wall -Werror".

    * All libraries on which FoxtrotGPS depends are now specifically
      probed by ./configure; the package should no longer fail to build
      following successful configuration.

    * An `autogen.sh' script hass been added to simplify bootstrapping
      the GNU Autotools-based build-infrastructure.

    * The output of the ./configure script's probes for depdencies has
      been made less confusing by naming each dependency as it is
      probed.

    * The GUI has been converted to GladeXML, and is dynamically
      loaded via libglade. A GladeXML UI definition can be specified
      from the command-line via a new "--gui" option.
