Version 0.6.2pre
Version 0.7.0
* LD_PRELOAD set to handle Mandrake 8.1 shared library problems.
* Drag and drop copying of events, address, attributes, and URLs.
* Improved GEDCOM. GRAMPS now understands many more of the "quirks"
of the GEDCOM produced by other programs. In addition, GRAMPS can
now tailor its GEDCOM output several other programs. An XML data
file is used to describe to GRAMPS the types of quirks each
format uses.
* Support for French Republican, Hebrew, and Julian calendars.
* LDS ordinance support.
* Cleaned up report dialog code.
* Bug fixes in GEDCOM reading and relationship calculator.
* Toolbar may display Icons and Text, Text only, or Icons only. This
helps in some of the translations, where the long text forced the
toolbar to be unusually large.
* Dragging and dropping media objects can optionally display property
dialogs.
* All toolbar icons have tooltips.
* Keyboard shortcuts for bookmark saving.
* Find dialog supports autocompletion, and has the more standard shortcut
of C-F.
* Change in XML database format to provides better support for dates.
* Added entries to the Help menu to jump to the GRAMPS home page and the
GRAMPS mailing list page.
Version 0.6.2
* Fixed SuSE 7.3/lib-imlib problem.
* Improved GEDCOM import/export. Gramps now passes the GEDCHK program
and can now properly handle the quirks in names, notes, and parent/child
