13    Changes in Thuban 1.0rc1
14    ========================
15    
16     - Redering improvements
17    
18       Rendering the map in the main window does not freeze Thuban
19       completely anymore. While the rendering occurs the window is updated
20       regularly to show the progress and you can interact with the window
21       and thuban in general even when the rendering is not complete yet
22    
23       The map display is also faster in many cases now, especially when
24       doing classifictions.
25    
26       The renderes have a mechanism to define how new layer classes defined
27       in extensions can be rendered (see the new wms extension for an
28       example)
29    
30     - Added a few extensions in the Extensions sub-directory. Most of them
31       are experimental to varying extents. Note that the binary packages
32       might not contain all of these extensions.
33    
34       - gns2shp
35    
36         Convert GNS (GEOnet Names Server) files to shapefiles. See
37         Extensions/gns2shp/gns2shp.py for more information
38    
39       - wms
40    
41         Use thuban as WMS client. See Extensions/wms/wms.py for more
42         information
43    
44       - importAPR
45    
46         Import a ArcView project file (.apr) and convert it to Thuban.
47    
48       - profiling
49    
50         For developers: perfomance measurement for the rendering code.
51         See Extensions/profiling/profiling.py for details.
52    
53       - drawshape
54    
55         This is a *very experimental* and potentially *dangerous* extension
56         to add shapes to a shapefile. Be careful with it as it may lead to
57         data loss. For more information, see Extensions/drawshape/README
58    
59     - A new command line option --enable-attribute-editing, which when
60       given turns on editing of attribute values in the identify view. It
61       only works on layers whose attribute data is stored in DBF files.
62       This experimental and may lead to data loss, so be careful when using
63       it.
64    
65     - EPSG projections
66    
67       Thuban now comes with two .proj files containing EPSG projections
68       (epsg.proj and epsg-deprecated.proj in Resources/Projections/). These
69       projections can be shown in the dialog with the new check boxes under
70       "Show EPSG".
71    
72     - Context menu in the legend window
73    
74       The legend window now has a context menu for most of the layer
75       commands
76    
77     - Localization updates
78    
79       The localization is now done with wxWindow's localization support and
80       thus deals automatically with character encoding transformations and
81       the standard dialogs are also translated properly if the wxWindows
82       .mo files are installed
83    
84       Updated translations for French and Spanish contributed by Daniel
85       Calvelo. Updated German translation
86    
87     - PostGIS improvements
88    
89       - Quote table and columns names properly.
90    
91       - The dialog deals better with duplicate connections (e.g. trying to
92         create a new connection when there already is a connection for the
93         same database)
94    
95     - Files written with the Windows version of Thuban can now be read by
96       the unix version. The other way round was already possible.
97    
98     - The shapefile handling code now uses shapelib 1.2.10
99    
100     - Thuban should work without problems and warnings with Python 2.3 now.
