2009-02-03 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Character portrait is not reset on error anymore. - Tooltip only retains previous skill learning info on error. 2009-01-28 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Applet will recuperate from network failures. - Previous info about character is still shown in tooltip in case of error. - Bugfix: Forgot to remove old variable in Core. - Preparations for 0.4.1 2008-12-03 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Preparations for 0.4.0 2008-12-01 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Moved formatted output out of core module into cmdline script / applet. - Moved skilltree into its own file. - Nicer usage of the package in the Python interpreter. - Icon for no-portrait should now be visible when the portrait is due to be updated, but not updated yet. - Portraits are stored in files in ~/.gnome2/eveskillcheck as a cache in case of unavailable image server. 2008-11-30 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Dropped unnecessary accuracy in seconds from training time left. - Skill level is now shown in Roman numbers. - Due to honouring cachedUntil on server, interval preferences became unnecessary 2008-11-27 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Make network socket error visible to user when checking fails. 2008-11-26 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Preparations for 0.3.1 - Honour the difference between skill not being trained and skill finished training while eveskillcheck was running. 2008-11-25 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Implements a cache handler for eveapi to reduce server load. - Tooltip shows Tranquility status like time, online players and if the server is open. - Context menu contains an item to update the info. This is the same behaviour as if the applet was left-clicked. - Faulty BIAS removed from core, because the real reason for the glitch was wrong time delta between finished skill learning time and current time (was utcnow on local machine and not Tranquility's time). 2008-11-15 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Preparations for 0.3.0 - Ships with updated eveapi which became non-functional after (buggy?) update of character data (certificates) in Quantum Rise. 2008-11-12 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Implemented callbacks from GConf for non-profile data like intervals and active profile ID. - Using a GConf scheme for default values. - Removed genuine threading as PyGTK doesn't seem to handle it well in the GNOME panel; using gobject.idle_add again. - Multiple profile support did not keep its state on panel restart, so a better integration into the panel's way of things was required. - Restructured a few things internally regarding preferences and logging. 2008-11-06 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Preparations for 0.2.4 - Threading business didn't work properly, resulting in skill-training-finished-dialog blocking the whole applet. 2008-11-05 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Preparations for 0.2.3 - Interval timeouts sometimes stopped. - Watch cursor was still shown when properties dialogue was X'ed. - Bias in order to be closer to actual finishing time was faulty when skill had been finished. - Retrieval of character portrait does not block display of other info. 2008-11-02 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Preparations for 0.2.2 - Improved OS-independence by improved file path handling, e.g. introduction of os.path.sep - Added a little bias to time retrieved from EVE servers to get closer to the actual time left. - Watch cursor on applet does not show anymore when properties dialogue is closed - Correction of a misconfigured profile is now recognised and info is updated accordingly after closing the properties dialogue. 2008-11-01 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Preparations for 0.2.1 - Applet saves previously used profile(s) on destruction. - Applet shows a watch cursor when it is busy retrieving data from servers. - Character info actually updates when update is initiated. 2008-10-20 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Got multiple account support. 2008-10-16 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Replaced auto* by python distutils 2008-10-15 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> - Added auto* structure - Introduced ChangeLog
2009-01-28 fluxkompensator <fluxkompensator@users.sourceforge.net> * Release version 0.4.1 * Features: - Previous info about character is still shown in tooltip in case of error. - In case of network failure, the applet will pick up polling the server again once the network is back up. * Bugfixes: - There was an old timeout variable in Core which could lead to an exception in some situations.

Features: - Portraits are now cached on local machine to be used in case of unavailable image server. - Dropped unnecessary accuracy in seconds from training time left and skill level is now shown in Roman numbers. - No preferences anymore for intervals due to honouring cachedUntil reported by API server. Bugfixes: - Make network socket error visible to user when checking fails.

* Features: - Slightly reduced server load due to implemented caching. - Tooltip shows Tranquility status like time, online players and if it the server is open. - Context menu contains an update item to show the same behaviour as if the applet was left-clicked. - Slightly different handling of skill not being trained and skill finished training while eveskillcheck was running. * Bugfixes: - Hopefully the applet now really shows the same time left for skill learning as if in the game.
