Hello,

GNU Foliot version 0.9.6-alpha is released.

	Special Note:

	Before GNU Foliot became a GNU package, it was named Kisê. The change of
	name has implied thousands of source code, manual and web-pages changes.

	The application is quite robust, with respect to the implemented
	functionality  as in version 0.9.5, but the huge quantity of source code
	changes is, in itlself, error prone, hence an alpha release.

	Obviously, we strongly recommend you make a backup of your
	database(s), if you were a Kisê user, you can never be too prudent!

* About GNU Foliot

GNU Foliot is a small and easy to use time keeping application.

It can be used in a single user mode or by small organizations. Starting with
version 0.9.4, it can import other user's database, an essential feature for remote
collaborators.

The fields it handles are: a date, who, for whom, what, a duration, whether or not
to be charged and a description.

It includes, on the main application screen, a powerful dynamic filters criteria
mechanism, which lets you visualize, work on and print a subset of your time keeping
entries.

A printing templates system allows you to (pre)define, reuse and hence quickly
generate the pdf files and/or printed reports of your needs.

A version which will let users export an active filter based subset of their time
keeping entries is under work.


* Changes since 0.9.5

Here is a summary of the changes since version 0.9.5. See GNU Foliot's git summary
[1] and git log [2] for a complete description:

Core

	-] known bugs have been fixed, see org/foliot-bugs.org if your are
	interested;

	-] automatic schema migration from kise -> foliot has been implemented;
	opening and re-importing dabatase(s) always trigger a schema check and
	upgrade automatically if necessary.

	Because of the above, we strongly recommend you make a backup of your
	database(s), if you were a Kisê user of course: you can never be too prudent!

GUI

	-] list-store duration now rendered as text: this is to paliate a gtk2 list
	store spin button rendering bug.

	the	.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig
	file and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

        	gpg --verify foliot-0.9.6-alpha.tar.gz.sig

	If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
	then run this command to import it:

        	gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys A3057AD7

	and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.
