<release version= "0.6.0" date= "2020-11-29" >
<description >
<p >
Mainly under the hood changes in this release, so nothing really visible to the users in this version. That
said, I figured it was a long time since the last release (4 months ago) and, as promised, I want Diffuse
development to be a bit more active and iterative.
</p>
<p >
Apart from the maintenance changes 🧰, I think the main improvement is that Diffuse will soon be available
through Flathub!
</p>
<p > Added:</p>
<ul >
<li > New Flatpak package, published on Flathub: com.github.mightycreak.Diffuse</li>
</ul>
<p > Changed:</p>
<ul >
<li > Replace old install.py with the more standard Meson</li>
<li > Remove u string prefixes since Python 3 is in UTF-8 by default</li>
<li > Replaced some interpolation operators (%) for the f string prefix</li>
<li > Use the window scale factor for the icons generation</li>
</ul>

<release version= "0.5.0" date= "2020-07-18" >
<description >
<p >
Here is the v0.5.0. Unintentionally, this release happens exactly 6 years after the previous v0.4.8 release!
</p>
<p >
There is a lot to do on this application, and some features didn't make the release. The main one being the
Windows installers. I think 6 years is too long to continue to wait until this bug is fixed. The Python
scripts should work on Windows, but no executable is produced (yet) with the release.
</p>
<p >
Other than that, Diffuse v0.5.0 is now officially compatible with Python 3 and GTK 3! And it is synced to the
latest commits from upstream (which were never released).
</p>
<p >
The next version will not take 6 years, I promise you! 😄
