    the project source tree
  * Gstreamer Playbin no longer builds as a separate package (no separate dll,
    although the .so lib is still built separately)
  * GStreamer events are now received asynchronously, which means the user
    interface adapts to the video in an asynchronous/non-blocking way
- Fixed some bugs in the video playback engine:
  * Loading a file when the previously loaded file wasn't played
  * Video position not being correctly updated after loading the video and
    before starting playback
- Display an error dialog when the help contents cannot be opened
- Fixed the use of Bug Buddy for bug reporting
- Changes in the project dependencies:
