47 * Development release for Fremantle.
49 - Update debian/rules to build the Fremantle-specific command-line config
50 tool and install the Xsession.post script.
51 - Revise the postinst. Now that we coexist with the MicroB browser
52 process, don't try to kill it in the postinst; instead, start
53 browser-switchboard as the user to make sure we handle links from the
54 get-go, and prestart MicroB if appropriate.

62 - only offer installed browsers in the config GUI
63 - make continuous mode operation the default; disable non-continuous-mode
64 on Fremantle (needed for correct operation on D-Bus system bus)
65 - Fremantle: major overhaul of MicroB launching to improve robustness;
66 should result in speed and behavior indistinguishable from when Browser
67 Switchboard isn't installed when MicroB is configured as default browser
68 - listen on D-Bus system bus as well as session bus, to accommodate some
69 broken applications that send their requests on the system bus
70 - Fremantle: start browser-switchboard on X session startup, and also
71 prestart MicroB if it's the default browser or the user asks for it
72 - Fremantle: prestart MicroB when the user changes to MicroB as the default
75 - Update package description to mention that we ship a control panel
76 applet, to help users who don't read documentation. Thanks to Emanuele

136 * New "upstream" stable release.
138 - make the "Web" menu entry and /usr/bin/browser open the default browser,
139 and provide a new "MicroB" menu entry and /usr/bin/microb script for
140 launching MicroB; the previous behavior was counterintuitive and
141 difficult to discover

148 ("logging") to control where debug output goes; thanks Faheem Pervez for
150 - close stdin/stdout/stderr in child processes before the exec(), to make
151 debug output on stdout less noisy
152 - fix some abuses of the D-Bus API in launcher.c:launch_tear()
153 - make sure a running browserd is detected correctly on all devices so that
154 we don't try to launch another one; thanks Faheem Pervez for reporting
155 - ensure that only one browser-switchboard is active at any time
156 - update build system; we now have "diablo" and "fremantle" targets that
157 build binaries for the selected OS release
158 - link binaries with -Wl,--as-needed to eliminate unnecessary dependencies
160 - Build with Thumb by default and provide a "nothumb" build option to turn
161 it off, instead of building with Thumb only when requested; the
162 autobuilders aren't requesting Thumb, but we want it by default.
163 - Update debian/rules for the new upstream build system.
