Labyrinth 0.4

Hi,

After a long wait, the next version of labyrinth is now available.

Labyrinth is a mind-mapping tool for the GNOME desktop (and beyond!).
This version can be found at 
ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/labyrinth/
(once the mirrors catch up)

The release consists currently of the source tarball.  I'll leave
packaging up to others.  I will be working to make the Windows version
usable again soon.  Sorry for the delay.

This release is due entirely to the two new maintainers: Martin Schaff
and Matthias Vogelgesang, who's awesome work has resulted in enormous
changes and many bug fixes.

As ever, if you want to get involved, visit the mailing list at:
http://groups.google.com/group/labyrinth-devel/

New Features:
 * Scaling and scrollable canvas (infinite sized maps!)
 * Add support for text attributes (bold, italics, underline and font
selection )
 * Arrow navigation of thoughts
 * Support foreground and background colouring of nodes
 * Import and export "labyrinth files" for maps in the form of tarballs
 * SVG export
 * PDF export
 * Save browser window state across instances (UNIX build only)

ANNOUNCE: Beagle 0.3.5

 Do not let the blogs and articles fool you into thinking this is a
 Fool's day email. You know you can't be fooled, so take a deep breath and
 read on...

 Announcing the release of Beagle 0.3.5 (Standard disclaimers apply).
 We have taken another attempt at building beagle without breaking
 anything and this time we fixed building with recent NDesk-DBus. We
 also fixed regressions in beagle-search where beagle-search window
 could appear grey when the shortcut key is pressed and/or
 beagle-search could crash when shortcut key is pressed. Enjoy. Oh, and
 now the epiphany extension also supports Epiphany 2.22.

 THE SHORT OF IT
 ---------------
 To download the 0.3.5 release or learn more about Beagle, visit
 the Beagle web page:
  http://beagle-project.org

 Link to tarball:
 http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/beagle/0.3/beagle-0.3.5.tar.bz2

 WHAT IS BEAGLE?
 ---------------
 Beagle is a Linux desktop-independent service which transparently and
 unobtrusively indexes your data in real-time.  For example:

 * Files are immediately indexed when they are created, are re-indexed
  when they are modified, and are dropped from the index upon deletion.
 * E-mails are indexed upon arrival.
 * IM conversations are indexed as you chat, a line at a time.

another snapshot before the final 1.6.0 release, but several critical

important to let people test the fixes with this snapshot. See below
