Hello,

GNU Foliot 0.9.7 is released.  This is a maintenance release, which
brings GNU Foliot up-to-date with Guile-2.2, which introduced an
incompatible module - goops related - change.


* 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.

Dependencies
------------

	- Guile       >= 2.0.14
	- Guile-Gnome >= 2.16.5
	- Grip 	      >= 0.1.2
        Grip-Gnome
	  Grip-SQLite

Core
----

	- Guile-2.2 does not query (default-duplicate-binding-handler)
      at module expand eval load time as it did for Guile-2.0, a bad
      decision imo, but we have to cope with it, and declare
      #:duplicates (merge-generics ...) in each individual module
      instead.  We also removed our patched version of guild, since it
      became useless, and now use the version that comes with Guile.

	- All getters, setters, accessors and methods are now exported
      using g-export - defined in (grip g-export) - which re-export
      defined names (and precisely should only be used for getters,
      setters, accessors and methods).


* Bug reports

Please report bugs to bug-foliot@gnu.org


* Mailing lists

For the time being, Foliot uses Guile's mailing list:

  guile-user@gnu.org is for general user help and discussion;

  guile-devel@gnu.org is used to discuss most aspects of Folit,
  including development and enhancement requests.

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without 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-0.9.7.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
