BlueProximity 1.2.4 released, Wiki started

BlueProximity has finally made it into Ubuntu Hardy Heron's universe repository. The last changes in this release were made for policy compliance and translations.
BlueProximity wants to be international and needs YOU to do so. We started the Wiki for making and providing localized versions of the manual. Please help us by translating either the GUI or the manual to your language. We need YOU!
