[Bookbase-announce] Announcing BookBase 0.8.8 (Corrected)

[Kurzawa <j....@mi...>]

My apologies, the last announcement I sent was incorrect.  Following is
the announcement for BookBase version 0.8.8 as it should have appeared:


BookBase version 0.8.8 has arrived.

New in this release:

Added menu bar with various items, including a status option which
describes connection details, as well as client/server versions.
Password entry now clears after a disconnect.
Added a very simple graphic to spice things up.  Whee.
Users can now backup and restore their entire bookbase database.  Right
now it's an all or nothing deal, but I expect it will grow into a more
fully featured tool in the future.
Fixed some bugs introduced in 0.8.6 concerning the date entries and the
comments field not taking input.
'All' and 'None' buttons now work as intended.
Added an 'About' window that gives all sorts of sordid details on the
life and times of all 2 BookBase developers.

[Bookbase-announce] Bookbase v0.80

[Greg K. <gre...@mi...>]

Announcing the release of Bookbase-0.80.

Most significant in this release is the implementation of a standard GNU
configure script.  This is our first step in eliminating hassles of
hacking up a Makefile just to get Bookbase compiled.  Don't be deceived,
there will still be problems; there will just be a lot less of them.

Also in this release is the skeleton of printing postscript reports.  It
is not yet complete, and would require modifying a few lines of code to
get it working on any printer other than mine, :) but it's a start.
Next release, printing should be fully functional.
