This is the NEWS file for ConfClerk. ConfClerk is the successor of
fosdem-schedule; cf. docs/fosdem-schedule for the historic documentation.

version 0.7.2, 2024-04-24
* Change parsing of start and end date so that 37C3 schedule works.
  The 37C3 schedule was created with pretalx, and uses a
  different datetime format.
  Thanks to Felix Becker for the bug report.
* Remove stale/cancelled events when reloading a conference schedule.

version 0.7.1, 2021-08-19
* Build system improvements for Haiku.
  Thanks to François Revol for the patches.

* UI fixes:
  - set minimum width in day navigator dynamically (except for Maemo)
  - show day and date in one line (except for Maemo)
  - adjust line heights in event lists to avoid overlaps
  Thanks to Axel Beckert for the report in the Debian BTS #992236

* Display time shift fixes:
  - keep stored value on reloading conferences
  - take into account for expanding time groups

version 0.7.0, 2021-07-30
* Parse, save and display UTC offset from XML files.
* Add "display time shift" option.
  This allows users to show events in a different timezone than the one the
  conference is in. Useful especially for online conferences during
  pandemics but also for other situations like travelling.
* Adjust alarm settings to UTC offset and time shift changes.
  (Lightly tested on Linux and not tested under Maemo.)
* Add appstream file.
* Update URLs in documentation.
* Cleanups in conference dialog.

version 0.6.4, 2017-12-08
* Improve proxy dialog and add support for SOCKS5 proxies.
  Thanks to intrigeri for the bug report.
  (Fixes: #59)
* Make toolbar in main window non-movable to prevent accidentally
  pulling it out.

version 0.6.3, 2017-10-01
* Support Qt5 and Qt4.
  (Fixes: #57)
  Mention new location of database file under Qt5 in docs.
* Fix display of events after midnight.
  (Fixes: #53)
* Fix import failures when the conference has no tracks in the XML file.
  Thanks to Martín Ferrari for the bug report and the help with the fix.
  (Fixes: #56)
* Bail out on import when conference XML has empty or ill-formed
  event IDs.
  Thanks to Paul Wise for the bug report.
  (Fixes: #58)
* Make URLs in Abstract/Description of event detail view clickable.
  (Fixes: #49)
* Improve exception handling and error messages.
  Thanks to Martín Ferrari for his help.
* Improve import dialog:
  - enable "Open" button only when a URL is entered
  - trim URL

version 0.6.2, 2017-01-24
* Event dialog: don't unconditionally assume plain text for description and
  abstract, can be rich text as well (i.e. contain HTML tags).
* Favourites: change from boolean to tri-strate: no favourite, weak/fallback
  favourite, strong favourite.  Adapt buttons and conflict markers.
  Thanks to Elena ``of Valhalla'' for the bug report.
  (Fixes: #54)
* Handle SSL errors.
  Present SSL error messages during download in a warning dialog and ask
  user about how to proceed.
  (In practice seen on Maemo due to ancient certificates.)

version 0.6.1, 2014-09-11
* Fix typos in documentation.
* Add Keyword entry to .desktop file.  
* Make it impossible to hide the toolbar by disallowing its context menu.

  Insert names into database, handle room name changes.

* Added more keybindings.
  (Fixes: #28)
* Rewrote event detail dialog, to avoid flicker on Maemo.
  (Fixes: #48)
* Events after midnight are shown on the day before (if the conference XML
  file is correct).
  (Fixes: #43)
* On non-Maemo system "alarms" (notifications) are shown.
  (Fixes: #46)
* Try to show current day on startup and show "day" tab.
  (Fixes: #44)
* Use conference id (not title) for import.
  (Fixes: #45)
* Use conference id (not title) for alarms (maemo).
  (Fixes: #38)
* Use one day navigator for whole app (instead of separate ones per tab).
  (Fixes: #11)

* UI changes:
  - button bar on the right side
  - shared "day navigator"
  - "Now" tab removed, function integrated into former "today" button

* Show close button in conference dialog also if there are no conferences
  yet.
* Show event title instead of id in alarm (maemo).
