[Rhythmbox-devel] Rhythmbox 0.6.0: "The Universe Is Finite"



Hi,

The Rhythmbox team is very proud to announce Rhythmbox 0.6.0.  The
release name signifies the fact that there is actually in theory still a
limit to the amount of music you can put in Rhythmbox's library, since
you are bounded by the universe's finite size.

Ok, so we haven't tested putting the universe in Rhythmbox.  Yet. 
However, those of you with a lot of songs should notice a speed boost
and a reduction in memory usage.

Speed isn't the only thing that's changed with this release though; we
have some sexy new features and a number of bugs squished.  Here's a
list:
