[mb-users] Picard 0.9.0 BETA released!

[Edward Branham]

Thanks for your hard work.

Unfortunately, I had a crash the first time I used it, trying to add new
files.  Also unfortunately, the website / bug report form hates my IP adderess
and will not allow me to put the report in there.

The critical error message I got was:

     picard.exe - Application Error

     The instruction at "0x02c9fbfb" referenced memory at "oxffffffff".  The  
 
     memory could not be "read".  

     Click on OK to terminate the program
     Click on CANCEL to debug the program

Thanks again!

> Changes since the last release are:
> 
>  * Save ASIN to MP4 files.
>  * Add a --disable-locales option to setup.py build. (Santiago M. Mola)
>  * New threading code, should make Picard crash less and be faster.
>  * Replace initial dot in file and directory names. (#3204, Philipp Wolfer)
>  * Fixed caps in the default cover art image. (#3242, Bogdan Butnaru)
>  * Fixed broken naming preview. (#3214, Daniel Bumke)
>  * Re-enable the drag/drop target indicators. (#3106)
>  * Fix adding files and directories from the command line. (#3075)
>  * Don't show the cover art box by default.
>  * Lookup files individually for "Unmatched Files", not as a cluster.
> 
> There should be no upgrade surprises, except cleared password in the
> options, which you will have to re-enter. All plugins that worked with
> 0.9.0alpha14 should work also with this release.

> Currently we have only source code tarball and Windows installer.
> Later today I'd like to build Ubuntu 7.10 packages. Eventually also
> Mac OS X installer should be added, but we need to find a volunteer to
> build and maintain it. :)
