About:

F-Fpot 0.0.6 is a quick bug fix release intended to remove several bugs
discovered immediately after the 0.0.5 release.  Since the releases
follow each other so closely this message also serves as an announcement
of F-Spot 0.0.5

New in this release:

- Fixed Image notification error when the requested image
  does not exist.
- Fixed slide show bug where frames failed to advance.
- Fixed bug in adding tags to untagged images.
- Fixed bug in rotation speed-up logic.
- Fixed exception in Icon editing.

New in f-spot 0.0.5 - Dart

- Much faster image loading and switching.
- Much faster orientation loading.  The rotation and flipping code has
  been optimized and tested.
- Smoother Scrolling in Icon view.
- Basic CD export capability with nautilus-cd-burner.
- Basic gnome-vfs export.  There are still some problems with
  destinations that require auth, but the building blocks are there.
- New UI. Menus, toolbar and color scheme have been updated.
- Improved color adjustment ui.  The adjusted colors can now viewed
  in the main ui.
- Improved thumnbnail generation.
- We now check for duplicate images on import.
- Move back to gtk-sharp 1.0.  Using 1.9 was too big of a step forward
  for many people so we once again use gtk-sharp 1.0.x
- Many bugs fixed.
- Many features added.
