Hi everyone,
We are pleased to announce a new stable release of Boxes.
Changes since 3.6.0
- Make spinner spin.
- Enable key navigation in main view.
- Disable/ignore keynav and other irrelevant keyboard events in search entry.
- Add Ctrl-Q keyboard shortcut for quitting Boxes.
- Correct/improve look&feel of selection mode.
- Gracefully handle 'topology node missing from libvirt capabilities' scenerio.
- Directly use libsoup for HTTP downloads.
- Add a SLEEPING mode for libvirt's new 'PMSUSPEND' state.
- Use GNOME logo for representing GNOME live media.

nonfunctional and not as important as customization of VMs.
- Automatically switch to 'System' tab in properties for VM under creation.
- Fix regression of not automatically continuing saved installations on launch.
- Fix inconsistencies in sizes of wizard toolbar buttons.
- Fix incorrect enabling of 'Continue' button in wizard.
- Don't crash when Tracker service is unavailable.

- Correct configure check for forcing building from vala sources.
- Disable S3/S4 states for new VMs to avoid some issues with these power states
in latest libvirt/qemu.
- Only gather stats for running VMs to save resources.
- Added/updated translations:
- Bulgarian
- Danish

- Slovak
- Traditional Chinese
- Thai
