[gtoad-devel] 3.7.6-BETA1 and the new bug tracking system

[Thomas S. <th...@st...>]

Bug Tracking
==========
First, I've started putting all of the currently broken items and or 
feature requests that I know are outstanding in to Sourceforge's bug 
system. To see a list of outstanding bugs/requests, visit:

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=111255&atid=662524

I have probably missed some requests that people have included in 
e-mails to me. If you have something you hate about GeoToad (other than 
the lack of a GUI), or have a feature idea, please post it there! 
Better yet, if the bug isn't assigned to anyone yet, take a stab at 
fixing it.

3.7.6-BETA1
==========
I spent time this morning fixing up the aforementioned bugs with 
unicode (particularly german) characters in GPX files. I was too 
aggressive in converting unicode ASCII into HTML entities, and now only 
do it for HTML files. I've released 3.7.6-BETA1 with this and other 
enhancements:

Major GPX improvements, such as:

* GeoToad version in header now works
* We now output the country and state the cache resides in
* Better handling of unicode characters in GPX
* Separation of shortdesc and longdesc

Other minor improvements:

* Add some common German words to the shortname scheme
* New version checking mechanism that gives release notes (now pointing 
to sourceforge.net)
