[Bastien Nocera <hadess hadess net>]

Hello,

Totem "Keep on dancing" 0.98.0 is out.

Totem is movie player for the Gnome desktop based on xine. It features a
playlist, a full-screen mode, seek and volume controls, as well as a
pretty complete keyboard navigation.

It comes with added functionality such as:
- Video thumbnailer for GNOME
- Webcam utility
- Nautilus properties tab

Requirements
------------

- GNOME 2.2

And for the backend:
- xine-lib 1.0 beta 11 or better
or
- gstreamer 0.6.x from CVS or 0.7.x

It is advised that distributors ship the xine backend by default.

If Totem locks up on startup, before showing the main window, please
