<title>Version 0.3</title>
<content>
It's probably been a bit more than "the next few days" to some folks,
but the holidays are funny that way, I suppose. Anyway, 0.3 is done
and ready for use, judgement, and criticism. The announcement is &nbsp;
<a href="http://www.phpbuilder.com/mail/php-general/2001011/1528.php">here</a>,
and the tarball is &nbsp;
<a href="http://mmcc.cx/php_imlib/php_imlib-0.3.tar.gz">here</a>.
Fair warning about the color range support: In the course of adding
it, I noticed a bug in Imlib2 1.0.0, which causes &nbsp;
<a href="documentation.php#imlib_image_fill_color_range_rectangle">imlib_image_fill_color_range_rectangle</a>
to segfault if you call it before adding at least two colors to the
color range. So, don't do that.

<title>Upcoming release</title>
<content>
With the release of PHP 4.0.4, a modest API change was made which will break
php_imlib &nbsp; &lt;= 0.2. So, in the next few days we'll be seeing version 0.3 come out to fix
this, and to add a modest few features. For now it looks like the new features will be color
range (gradient) support and image compression/quality setting. On the bugfix front, there's
also a somewhat significant fix to imlib_blend_image_onto_image, which doesn't behave correctly
in prior releases when blending images with alpha channels.

<title>Version 0.2</title>
<content>
Well, I'm releasing 0.2 with two days to spare on my "one or two weeks" time estimate.
Briefly, this release adds all the drawing stuff mentioned below, image rotation, flipping,
tiling, a much better set of PHP classes, and no Xlib requirement.

<title>More Updates</title>
<content>
All drawing functions now obey an optional clipping rectangle that
can restrict how much of the image they can draw on. Pretty slick. On
the PHP side, the class files are coming out nicely, here's one of the &nbsp;
<a href="./class.ImlibImage.txt">class files</a>, and some &nbsp;
<a href="./imlibtest.txt">example code</a> that uses most of the
functionality currently in place. &nbsp;
<a href="mailto:cardinal at dodds.net">Feedback</a> on this is
especially encouraged.
<br><br>There's not much left to do before releasing 0.2, probably in
one or two weeks. Most of the work at this point is documentation,
some examples, etc.

<title>Imlib2 1.0.0 Released</title>
<content>
Well, the first stable release of Imlib2 has been sent out.
php_imlib 0.2 will require it, since it fixes several important bugs,
and adds some drawing functions.

<title>Imlib2 sans Xlib</title>
<content>
Raster recently accepted a patch from our own Steve Langasek which
removes the dependency of Xlib from Imlib2. In other news, I added
polygon drawing and cliprect support, so all in all it was a good wekend.

<title>Development Update</title>
<content>
Just a quick update on where things are heading, I've added the
drawing routines and flip/tile stuff. So, there's two things off my
todo list. Polygons will be in by next week. After that, it's going
to be mostly PHP-side coding, getting some good class files fleshed
out that should make development nice and clean.
