[K3d-development] CVS release notes

[Timothy M. S. <ts...@k-...>]

Big milestone today, folks - signal and undo/redo refactoring are done! 
  That's right, the conversion from k3dVariable to k3d::data and from 
k3dIEvent to libsigc++ that you (and I) thought would never end, did. 
We've cleaned-up a lot of code, and it feels great!

Non-programmers and newcomers to the list may be wondering why they 
should care about this refactoring stuff.  The answer is that the signal 
and variable changes we've been making are directly responsible for the 
radical improvements in reliability we've seen since November of last 
year - so this is finishing the job that was started back then.  Now 
that it's done, we can direct more energy towards interesting new 
features.  On top of improved reliability, the design changes 
significantly reduce the complexity of writing a plugin, so I'm 
confident we'll see more plugins in the future than we otherwise would have.

Cheers,
Tim
