Add a checkbox to keep episodes when removing channels

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add a checkbox to the confirmation dialog when

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add configuration options that support the
        tray icon, notification bubble and automatic update/close functions

Use os.rename to make channel list saving atomic

        * src/gpodder/opml.py: Make the saving of the channel list atomic by
        first saving it to a temporary file and then using os.rename to really
        move the file in place (this should make the channel list saving very
        stable and protect against certain bad system conditions where the
        channel list is emptied); thanks to Jens Thiele <karme@berlios.de> for
        the suggestion and pointers to improve the channel saving code

Sat, 05 Jan 2008 15:34:23 +0100 <thp@perli.net>

Migrate from channels.xml (from 0.9.4) to channels.opml if needed

        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Add code to check if channels.xml exists
        but channels.opml doesn't and if so, try to convert from channels.xml
        to channels.opml, so users upgrading from 0.9.4 directly will have
        their channel list automatically converted;
        thanks to Tim Michelsen for the bug report and helpful Ubuntu info

Tue, 01 Jan 2008 23:32:50 +0100 <thp@perli.net>

        * src/gpodder/download.py: Notify the download status manager when a
        download has been completed successfully
        * src/gpodder/services.py: Add download-complete signal to list of
        possible signals and download_completed() method to be used by
        downloads to notify the status manager of a successful download

Patch the feedparser module to correctly process democracynow.org

        * src/gpodder/cache.py: Add a patch_feedparser() method that checks of
        the feedparser module correctly maps the "plain" content-type to the
        correct "text/plain" content-type and if not, replace the
        mapContentType method with a fixed one; this should make the audio
        podcast on democracynow.org working (thanks to Clark Burbidge for the
        bug report)

        Donohoe <priestoftime@googlemail.com> for reporting this bug and
        sending in a patch; this should allow for e-mail address usernames

Also delete old episodes that have disappeared from the feed

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: When deleting old episodes automatically, also
        delete episodes that have disappeared from the RSS feed and are only
        available locally; thanks to Pieter De Decker <pdedecker@gmail.com>
        for the very detailed and helpful bug report :)

Stability updates: Feed cache update, old PyCairo versions

        * src/gpodder/draw.py: Add a workaround for pycairo versions less than
        1.1.6. Thanks to Chris Arnold for reporting this bug on the
        gpodder-devel mailing list and taking the time to test the patch and
        report back and provide useful information for debugging this error
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Close the feed cache update dialog even when the
        user clicks on "cancel" (would have stayed there otherwise)

Tue, 18 Dec 2007 10:13:44 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Merge "delete episode after sync" patch from Jérôme Chabod

        * data/gpodder.glade: Add GUI elements in preferences dialog to select
        what to do after episode sync (nothing, delete or mark played)
        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add "on_sync_delete" configuration option
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Glue "on_sync_delete" config and GUI together
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: If the configuration option
        on_sync_delete is set, remove the episode after successfully copying
        it to the iPod or MP3 player (the whole patch has been initially done
        by Jérôme Chabod <jerome.chabod@france.com> with some modifications)
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Make delete_from_disk() a bit more
        robust, so it doesn't disturb libipodsync's functionality

Mon, 17 Dec 2007 16:26:43 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Remove invalid channel cover images when loading fails

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Remove the cover_file of a channel when
        it cannot be loaded (assume something went wrong when downloading the
        cover file); re-downloading the cover manually can solve the problem

Mon, 17 Dec 2007 15:00:17 +0100 <thp@perli.net>

        channels with international characters as titles

        * src/gpodder/config.py: New boolean auto_remove_old_episodes
        configuration option that defaults to False (remove on startup)
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add code to automatically remove old, unplayed
        episodes on startup if the specific configuration options have been
        set; connect config manager to GUI items for the preferences dialog
        * data/gpodder.glade: Add checkbox for automatically removing old,
        unplayed episodes from gPodder on startup and a spinbutton to set the
        amount of days after which an episode is considered "old"

Wed, 12 Dec 2007 19:44:15 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Merged episode locking patch from Paul Rudkin

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Merged "lock episodes" patch to mark episodes as
        locked, patch by Paul Rudkin <paul@thegithouse.com>
        * data/gpodder.glade: Add menu item for toggle locked status
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Add "locked" history
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: When requesting a status icon, also draw
        the "Locked" status; is_locked() in podcastItem
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Added code for drawing a padlock icon on top of
        another (file type) icon; this is used for the "lock episodes" feature

Tue, 11 Dec 2007 22:10:03 +0100 <thp@perli.net>

Move observer code out of DownloadStatusManager into ObservableService

        * src/gpodder/services.py: Move out all observer-related code like
        registration, unregistration and notification to a new
        ObservableService class; subclass ObservableService in
        DownloadStatusManager; this makes the observer code in
        DownloadStatusManager re-usable (will be needed for new sync code)

Mon, 10 Dec 2007 09:33:26 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Selective iPod episode clean-up; "delete older than X days"

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add episode_old_age configuration variable;
        is an integer, defaults to 7. This is the number of days after which
        an episode will be considered "old"
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: iPod cleanup is now done selectively using the
        episode selector dialog; the code has been split, because we do not
        yet have an episode selector dialog for FS-based sync; add "Downloaded
        x days ago" column to "Delete old episodes" dialog and a corresponding
        button; call the callback even when no episodes are selected in
        gPodderEpisodeSelector
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Class variables of gPodder_iPodSync
        moved to __init__ to be instance variables (this should fix a bug that
        crops up now that we can selectively delete episodes); remove_tracks()
        and clean_playlist() have been modified/added to support new episode
        selector deletion code
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Move is_played() to podcastItem from
        podcastChannel (it really belongs to the item; this makes code more
        readable in other parts of the codebase); add age_in_days(), is_old(),
        get_age_string() and age_prop to podcastItem
        * src/gpodder/util.py: New function: file_modification_datetime();
        returns a datetime.datetime instance of the MTIME (modification
        timestamp) of the filename given as parameter or None if the filename
        cannot be determined; this is used for the "old episodes" feature

Sun, 09 Dec 2007 16:45:11 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Make has_converter() a bit more intelligent in detecting extensions

        * src/gpodder/libconverter.py: Convert given extension to lowercase
        and strip a leading "." from the extension, so calling code can also
        give the second value of the os.path.splitext() result directly to
        has_converter()

Sun, 09 Dec 2007 13:20:49 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix pre-setting code for filechooser buttons; Patch by Paul Rudkin

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Fix pre-setting code for filechooser-related
        code; use set_current_folder() instead of set_filename()
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Fix pre-setting code for filechooser-related
        code; thanks to Paul Rudkin <paul@thegithouse.com> for the patch

Support for itms:// links (direct links to the Apple iTunes Music Store)

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Support direct itms:// links by splitting out
        the iTunes Podcast links parsing routines. This should put us in for
        some nice iTunes podcast link support that will automagically
        translate iTunes podcast links to the correct RSS feed URL

Thu, 06 Dec 2007 09:29:09 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Support for iTunes Podcast links (http://phobos.apple.com/...)

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add support for subscribing to iTunes Podcast
        links (those with phobos.apple.com); new functions:
        parse_itunes_xml(), http_get_and_gunzip() and itunes_dicover_rss()

Thu, 06 Dec 2007 09:15:57 +0100 <thp@perli.net>

Sort channel list (finally ;)

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Sort channels by lowercase title before
        returning the channel list in load_channels(); this automagically
        makes gPodder's channel list always sorted :)
        Thanks to FriedBunny <friedbunny@kulturny.com> for suggesting this and
        sending in an intial patch that led to this patch =)
        * TODO: Remove implemented item: Sort channel list

Tue, 04 Dec 2007 23:28:27 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Do grayscale "pill" instead of theme-based colors (for bad themes)

        * src/gpodder/draw.py: Always draw the "pill" in semi-transparent
        black/grey shades so it will work for all GTK themes (even Ubuntu's)

Mon, 03 Dec 2007 21:35:56 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Update channel navigator when iPod/MP3 player sync has finished

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Update channel navigator when iPod sync has
        finished, so we can update the "played" status in the channel
        navigator when this status has changed after we've synced ("on sync
        mark played" option)

Mon, 03 Dec 2007 21:24:17 +0100 <thp@perli.net>

        * data/gpodder.glade: Option added to preferences dialog
        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add option "on_sync_mark_played"; will mark
        an episode as played when it gets transferred to a device
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Glue code for GUI + gpodder.config
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: On sync, mark episode as played if the
        user has selected the "on_sync_mark_played" option
        * TODO: Remove implemented/integrated items

Sat, 01 Dec 2007 15:19:29 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix a fatal bug with first-run that prevents channel list saving

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Always use a file's parent directory to get the
        free disk space and return zero free disk space when the parent
        directory does not exist

Thu, 29 Nov 2007 08:53:36 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Support for itpc:// URLs

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add support for adding "itpc://" URLs (these
        are simply http:// URLs with a different schema, for iTunes)

Tue, 27 Nov 2007 22:59:26 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Draw channel stats (unplayed, downloaded) on channel navigator

        * bin/gpodder: We're in development again, so add "+svn"
        * src/gpodder/draw.py: Added
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Fix import of renamed "channels_to_model";
        re-assign new column numbers for treeChannels' data model; add
        cell renderer for pill pixbuf and remove cell renderer for status text
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add episode_is_new() function to
        podcastChannel to check if an episode can be considered "new"; use the
        episode_is_new function in get_new_episodes; add get_episode_stats()
        after an idea from Paul Rudkin <paul@thegithouse.com>; re-factor
        channels_to_model and clean out old, unused code and columns

Make sure there is enough free disk space when saving OPML channel list

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Notify user that there's some problem saving the
        current channel list when save_channels() return False
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Pass-through the return value of
        gpodder.opml.Exporter.write so calling code knows if saving the
        channel list was successful or not
        * src/gpodder/opml.py: Check free disk space before saving OPML
        channels in Exporter.write; thanks to Jens Thiele <karme@berlios.de>
        for reporting this bug on the Debian BTS (Closes: Debian Bug #452490)

Don't send Referer header when downloading episodes

        * src/gpodder/download.py: Some podcasts now implement an
        "anti-bandwidth-theft" code that should provide other websites from
        not linking to the episodes; as we have sent a Referer header
        containing the RSS feed URL, this causes problems; Referer header
        sending is therefore disabled now

Check free disk space before copying files to iPod

        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Check if the iPod's filesystem has
        enough free disk space before copying files over to it, as to not
        corrupt the iTunesDB in certain situations and fail when disk is full;
        thanks to Nicolas Quienot <niqooo@gmail.com> for the bug report
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add get_free_disk_space() function that
        calculates the free (user-available) disk space on a given path

        bigger cover image, the title, description, url and used disk space
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add save_dir_size property to
        podcastChannel that contains the disk usage of the channel's save_dir;
        this can be manually updated by calling update_save_dir_size() and
        will automatically be updated when the GUI code hooks into the
        channel; also add get_cover_pixbuf() that returns a pixbuf of the
        cover for a given size or None if there is no valid cover file

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 19:19:11 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Slipstream code (enumerate instead of simple position tracking)
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Use enumerate() to iterate over a list

Ignore initial window events from GtkWindow in Config

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add a flag to config manager to ignore window
        events until the window has been realized; then, start taking position
        and size updates

Improve caching for HTTP redirects and minor errors; cache clean-up

        * src/gpodder/cache.py: Cache content when it comes from a HTTP
        redirect (301, 302, 307); cache feeds even with parsing errors, so we
        can "fill" our cache and not download on every startup
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add cache clean-up code after loading
        channels; this should keep the feedcache.db file smaller for users
        that like to try out new channels (or have used gPodder for a while)

Sun, 11 Nov 2007 14:24:17 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Better file extension guessing for URLs

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Improve file_extension_from_url() by adding
        additional checks for known good extensions and recurse into the query
        string if it looks like an URL; this should fix compatibility problems
        for feeds with strange URLs; should provide more reliable guessing;
        thanks to Nicolas Quienot <niqooo@gmail.com> for the bug report

Fri, 09 Nov 2007 10:05:36 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix format_filesize() usage in episodes selector and podcastItem

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Use the correct (config-using) format_filesize()
        function to generate the total size string in the episode selector
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Use the correct (config-usig
        format_filesize() function to generate the total size string in
        podcastItem; thanks to Pieter De Decker <pdedecker@gmail.com> for
        pointing that out
        * data/gpodder.glade: Use "Preferences" instead of "Preferences..."
        which feels a bit better in the GUI

Thu, 08 Nov 2007 21:25:19 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add "gPodder download folder synchronizer" scripts to repository

        * doc/dev/gdfs/gdfs-check.py: Added
        * doc/dev/gdfs/gdfs-init.py: Added
        * doc/dev/gdfs/README: Added

Thu, 08 Nov 2007 20:01:13 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
The mighty episode selector dialog and some menu re-arrangements

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Move the "center_on_widget" keyword-based window
        positioning code to GladeWidget to be universally usable; update
        "Device" menu item on startup; new functions: delete_episode_list()
        and download_episode_list() that both operate on lists of episodes;
        add code for invoking gPodderEpisodeSelector for deleting old
        episodes; re-work on_itemDownloadAllNew_activate to use the episode
        selector instead of hand-crafting a message dialog text; add
        update_item_device() function that will handle the hiding, showing and
        renaming of the "Device" menu in the menubar; clean-up
        gPodderProperties with callback_finished setting (now kwarg-based);
        new, might, fancy, customizable and uber-sexy gPodderEpisodeSelector
        that will prove to be useful in some places in our codebase: it
        basically allows the user to select a subset of episodes from a given
        list in a quite sophisticated way; new "delete old episodes" menu item
        added for cleaning up gPodder's downloads
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add delete_from_disk() convenience
        method to podcastItem; other convenience properties and functions
        needed for the new episode selector dialog: pubdate_prop,
        get_filesize_string(), filesize_prop, get_channel_title(),
        channel_prop, get_played_string(), played_prop
        * data/gpodder.glade: new gPodderEpisode dialog; re-structuring of
        gPodder's main menu to be more usable and more compact; also added the
        Ctrl+K "Remove old episodes" menu item; also use the correct
        "multimedia-player" icon name of a not really representative icon

Thu, 08 Nov 2007 12:07:30 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Support syncing to FS-based MP3 players without subfolders

        * data/gpodder.glade: Add checkbox "Create a subfolder for each
        channel" to preferences dialog and rename some widgets
        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add boolean "fssync_channel_subfolders"
        option that defaults to True (create subfolder for each channel)
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Hook up config option fssync_channel_subfolders
        to preferences dialog; do more intelligent widget hiding for the
        "Player" tab in the preferences dialog (only show relevant widgets)
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Only append channel name as subfolder to
        destination folder name when the "fssync_channel_subfolders" option is
        True; suggested by Paul Elliot <omahns.home@gmail.com>

Thu, 08 Nov 2007 11:28:17 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix offline cache behaviour when time is not set

        * src/gpodder/cache.py: Return cached_content in offline mode when
        cached_content "is not None" (instead of cached_time "is not None")

Tue, 06 Nov 2007 12:37:41 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Process events before connecting Config to gtk windows

        * data/gpodder.glade: Remove default size for main gPodder window, as
        this is now handled by the config manager
        * src/gpodder/config.py: Process GTK events in the event queue before
        connecting to the "configure-event" signal, so we won't get two
        configure events for the window for the initial size change

Mon, 05 Nov 2007 13:51:26 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add error reporting when download fails because of an I/O error

        * src/gpodder/download.py: Catch and handle I/O errors in
        DownloadThread and format and pass on messages to GUI code when
        required; thanks to Florian Richter <Florian_Richter@gmx.de> for
        suggesting this feature after having a full disk
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Update tree view when adding a new episode;
        add new notification() method and pass this method through to
        DownloadThread, so it can present messages to the user (i.e. errors)

Mon, 05 Nov 2007 12:54:35 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Use util.find_command in more places (mplayer detection, ...)

        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Use util.find_command to detect the
        existence of the "gnome-btdownload" command and spit out a warning log
        message when the command is not available
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Use util.find_command to check for an
        installed mplayer binary (instead of relying on os.system("which...")

Mon, 05 Nov 2007 01:12:15 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Better command detection for the converter library

        * src/gpodder/libconverter.py: Detect existence of commands before
        invoking them for converting files; based on a patch by
        Nick (nikosapi.org); ConverterCollection is now a dict itself :)
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add new find_command() function that will
        search the system's PATH for a specific executable command

Mon, 05 Nov 2007 00:21:39 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Remove extracted cover art when deleting episode files

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Apply modified version of a patch from
        Nick (nikosapi.org) that is better suited for deleting cover art that
        has been extracted with the new eyeD3 cover art extraction code

Mon, 05 Nov 2007 00:17:12 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Patch from Nick (nikosapi) to support eyeD3 cover art extraction

        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Apply modified version of a patch from
        Nick (nikosapi.org) to utilize eyeD3 for cover art extraction in iPod
        sync code; remove dependency on PyID3
        * README: PyID3 is not a dependency anymore, as we can now use eyeD3
        for the same purpose (cover art extraction)

Sat, 03 Nov 2007 14:14:09 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix format_filesize() function to be standards-conformant (unit prefixes)

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add "use_si_units" configuration option; if
        True, the user will see SI units (MB, kB, ...); if False (the
        default); the user will see binary-prefix units (MiB, KiB, ..)
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Add pass-through function
        "format_filesize()" to gPodderLib that combines the
        util.format_filesize function with the gPodder-specific config option
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Apply a modified patch from Gerrit Sangel
        <z0idberg@gmx.de> to add support for SI units and binary prefixes to
        format_filesize(); this makes the function standards-compliant
        * src/gpodder/download.py: Updated to use new format_filesize
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Updated to use new format_filesize
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Updated to use new format_filesize

Fri, 02 Nov 2007 17:28:05 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
New Configuration/Settings Manager; massive code clean-ups

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Added new Configuration Manager that
        automatically keeps track of saving changed values and is also able to
        watch GTK widgets for changes; this should simplify our settings
        management and give us a single place for maintaining settings
        * src/gpodder/download.py: Access settings from new config manager
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Make use of new config manager to connect
        widgets and settings from the GUI directly to the config manager;
        remove manual loading and saving of settings; auto-connect as much as
        possible in the gPodderProperties dialog to get real-time automatic
        configuration saving; fix the other code to use new config manager
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: MASSIVE code clean-up; removed lots of
        old cruft and dead code that has been lying around in libgpodder for
        some time now; remove configuration code; utilize config manager;
        unify DownloadHistory+PlaybackHistory in new HistoryStore class;
        reduce number of import statements
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Access settings from new config manager
        * src/gpodder/libplayers.py: Removed dotdesktop_command()
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Move locking functionality into this
        module, as locking is only used here; access config from new manager
        * src/gpodder/services.py: Use config manager to get settings
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add format_desktop_command() function, based on
        the dotdesktop_command() function from libplayers

Fri, 02 Nov 2007 07:49:38 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add ability to open download folder from channel's context menu

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add "Open download folder" menu item to channel
        navigator context menu
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Add open_folder() method that will open
        the DE's default folder browser via "xdg-open"

Thu, 01 Nov 2007 15:29:00 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Limit filename on FS-based sync to 50 characters

        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Do not allow extremely long file names
        that could theoretically be generated by using data from RSS feeds;
        this is needed to make FAT-based drives work with files that would
        otherwise have file names that are too long

Wed, 31 Oct 2007 15:22:32 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Escape RSS-provided strings in Pango markup

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Escape strings in Pango markup

Add "Save episode to file" handling to episode list context menu

        * data/gpodder.glade: Use a stock "Save As" button for the "Copy
        episode to file" button
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add new show_copy_dialog() method to GladeWidget
        that shows a copy dialog where a user can copy a file to a selected
        destination (this is used for "Save episode to file"); use
        show_copy_dialog in "Save As" in gPodderEpisode; add "Save episode to
        folder" menu item in episode list context menu and use
        show_copy_dialog to carry out the user interaction

Sun, 28 Oct 2007 13:30:40 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Allow "https://" URLs for episode URLs, as we can handle these, too

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Allow "https://" as a valid URL scheme, as we
        can handle https URLs, thanks to Aravind Seshadri
        <aravind@aravind.name> who initially reported this bug

Thu, 25 Oct 2007 14:00:01 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Sync videos to the "Video Podcasts" playlist instead of the "Video" menu

        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Merged patch from Nicolas Quienot
        <niqooo@gmail.com> to sync videos to the "Video Podcasts" menu instead
        of the "Videos" menu, as documented on http://ipodlinux.org/ITunesDB

sync_filename in podcastItem; cleanup; hide extra progressbar on transfer

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Use podcastItem's sync_filename(); hide the
        unnecessary second progressbar when only syncing one channel (i.e.
        when clicking on the "transfer" button in the main window
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Remove unneeded lexists import and
        warning; clean-up
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Use podcastItem's sync_filename()
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add sync_filename() to podcastItem,
        returns the custom_sync_name or the title of the episode, based on the
        user's configuration settings for FS-based MP3 player sync

Sun, 07 Oct 2007 14:38:31 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Add wishlist items to TODO list from Paul and Wilfred

Limit download progress status updates to reduce CPU load

        * src/gpodder/download.py: Limit the amount of status updates the
        download threads send to the DownloadStatusManager to one per second;
        this should make gPodder less CPU-intensive with many parallel
        downloads; thanks to Wilfred van Rooijen for reporting and testing

Tue, 02 Oct 2007 17:59:29 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Update channel models (icons) after iPod synchronization

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Call update_model() on each channel after an
        iPod sync, so we can update the played state on the available episodes
        lists when played state was changed by the iPod sync

Sat, 29 Sep 2007 14:12:15 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Fix loading of channel metadata (load auth data and settings)

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Load channel metadata when loading a
        podcastChannel object from OPML/LocalDB. This fixes a problem with
        authentication data being not loaded and also fixes a bug when the
        custom-set channel title was not correctly used throughout the GUI.
        Thanks to Nick (nikosapi) for reporting and providing a patch

Tue, 25 Sep 2007 22:02:19 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Finally remove Desktop symlink code; several compatibility fixes

        * src/gpodder/download.py: Prevent divide-by-zero errors when
        calculating download speed
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Prevent divide-by-zero errors when calculating
        percentage done in code for moving the downloaded items folder
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Remove the "Symlink on Desktop" code,
        because it's not GUI-accessible anymore and we didn't use it anyway
        * src/gpodder/opml.py: Better local filename detection by using
        os.path.exists() instead of .startswith('/'); this is also good for
        cross-platform compatibility where parts don't usually start with a
        forward slash (i.e. Win32)

Mon, 24 Sep 2007 00:09:44 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Channel list selection bug fixes

Fix problems with path selection in treeChannels

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Simple bugfix

Fri, 21 Sep 2007 00:32:51 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Center gPodderEpisode on treeAvailable for less mouse hopping

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: If possible, center the gPodderEpisode dialog
        window on the treeAvailable, because that makes the position of the
        opened dialog more predictable and easier to use (as if the
        gPodderEpisode dialog was "inside" the treeView from which it opened)

Fri, 21 Sep 2007 00:07:49 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Don't translate feed format string examples

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Don't mark format string examples as

Small bugfix for updating treeChannels when its model changes

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Bugfix

Wed, 19 Sep 2007 16:57:41 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Removed channel combobox, drag'n'drop improvements + new channel cover editor

        * data/gpodder.glade: Remove comboAvailable in gPodder (main window);
        add download+clear button in gPodderChannel, rename some items that
        are now used in code; make the channel navigator non-shrinkable (so
        it is always visible, because we don't have comboAvailable anymore)
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Remove support for the channel combo box,
        also known as comboAvailable; clean-up DND code and make treeChannels
        the only DND target in the main window; remove some unnecessary
        updating of the channel list (calls to updateComboBox);
        Changes for the gPodderChannel dialog: Don't automatically download
        channel cover when dialog pops up; add "Download" and "Clear" buttons
        to the cover editor; add DND support for dropping local files or
        images from the web browser to the cover editor (for setting custom
        covers on channels with bad or no cover)
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Don't abort get_image_from_url() if the
        URL is invalid, but the image has already been downloaded (because we
        read the downloaded image in the code when it exists, without URL)

Wed, 19 Sep 2007 14:23:40 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Center feed update dialog on main window; scroll reset in chan.navigator
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Reset the current scroll position of the channel
        navigator when re-loading the channel list; this fixes an annoyance
        that Alistair Sutton <alistair.sutton@gmail.com> reported when dealing
        with a HUGE channel list (more than 50 channels); also removed the
        scroll position reset code from treeAvailable, as we already managed
        to only edit the model instead of re-loading it every time; added code
        to really center the feed update dialog on gPodder's main window

Tue, 18 Sep 2007 20:15:56 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Replace wget with new gpodder.download module; User-agent support

        * bin/gpodder: Set "gpodder.user_agent" field on startup; remove check
        for wget, as this is not needed anymore
        * src/gpodder/cache.py: Clean-up; remove old logging code; add support
        for gpodder.user_agent; log info when there is an error in parsing the
        feed, so the user knows why this feed is not cached
        * src/gpodder/console.py: Remove DownloadPool, Use new
        gpodder.download module for carrying out downloads, remove
        wget_version() tester, as this is not needed anymore =)
        * src/gpodder/download.py: Added new downloader module that uses
        urllib and some custom classes and functions to provide the equivalent
        functionality of the obsolete "libwget", but without the wget
        dependency and with better accuracy (progress reporting, etc..)
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Utilize new gpodder.download module instead of
        libwget
        * src/gpodder/__init__.py: Add "user_agent" variable to the gpodder
        module that holds the value of the "User-agent" header to send to web
        servers when requesting OPMLs, Feeds or download data
        * src/gpodder/opml.py: Add support for sending the User-agent header
        * src/gpodder/services.py: Make the progress column a float column to
        have smoother progress indicuation; add the "acquired" keyword
        argument to s_release(); default 'speed' to a translated "Queued"
        * src/gpodder/libwget.py: Removed
        * doc/dev/redhat-wget-output.txt: Removed

Tue, 18 Sep 2007 02:30:04 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Refreshed pot files and po templates; updated German translation

        * data/messages.pot: Refreshed from current source

Fix a bug when traversing directories with loop symlinks

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Don't dive into subdirectories that are
        symbolic links, this is to avoid a situation where looping symlinks
        result in the function dead-locking in a endless recursive loop,
        thanks to Bjørn Rasmussen <bjoernr@sensewave.com> for pointing that
        out and providing the necessary bug report to fix this issue

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add supporting code for reading/setting

Sun, 02 Sep 2007 14:23:17 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
More sanitizing hacks for ugly feeds we don't really like

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Negotiate which enclosure to select from
        multiple enclosures, if there are more than one available; skip
        episodes with a buggy download URL (i.e. no supported URL scheme)

        determined from the string passed to format_filesize(); return "None"

Fri, 31 Aug 2007 23:38:01 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Handle enclosures (or lack thereof) better if fields are missing

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Remove refetch_channel_list() function, as this
        is not called anywhere from the code (uh, how did i miss that?)
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Be more liberal to enclosure tags
        without length or mime type; ignore episodes without enclosures (it's
        not len(enclosures) == 0, but the enclosures attribute doesn't even
        exist on entries without enclosures, so make sure to check for that

Fri, 31 Aug 2007 20:03:03 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Use Python's webbrowser module for URL opening; channel dialog clean-up

Thu, 30 Aug 2007 21:06:28 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Dependency check for python-feedparser in bin/gpodder

Improved pubDate parsing; episode delete bugfix

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Let feedparser parse the pubDate field
        of episodes and use new function in gpodder.util to convert the parsed
        pubDate to a string; bugfix for remove downloaded episode by URL
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add updated_parsed_to_rfc2822() function that
        converts the "updated_parsed" field from feedparser to a RFC2822

Last batch of experimental change merges (up to svn r398)

        * doc/dev/tepache-howto.txt: Removed
        * doc/dev/tepache: Removed
        * src/gpodder/gui.py.orig: Removed
        * src/gpodder/libwget.py: Send progress = 0.0 on inital status update
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Try to get episode metadata from several
        different properties of the corresponding feedparser entries; warn
        user when we couldn't get the episode title and try to get the episode
        title from the filename of the URL if we still have not found an
        episode title
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Add get_device_name() that returns a
        "nice" representative string of the currently selected device that can
        be used to represent the device in the GUI
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Return "(unknown)" string when bytesize in
        format_filesize() when the size has a negative value; make
        get_tree_icon() catch errors and be more corrent with icon creation;
        add get_first_line() function that extracts the first line of a string
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Add "divx" to list of video extensions
        * src/gpodder/services.py: DownloadStatusManager has a new observer
        notification: "progress-detail"; add unregister() functionality for
        observers; add request_progress_detail() function that can be used to
        force a "progress-detail" notification to be sent out to all relevant
        observers; remove get_url_by_iter() function as it is not needed
        anymore
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Clean-up after tepache dependency removal; new
        GladeWidget base class that subclasses SimpleGladeApp and simplifies
        class creation for our gPodder windows; add context menu to
        treeAvailable; re-work play_or_download() and make it return a list of
        boolean indicators on which actions can be performed on the selected
        items; move show_message() and show_confirmation() to GladeWidget;
        disable editing of the URL in the channel info dialog, this simplifies
        code and editing the URL doesn't make so much sense anyway (adding the
        new url and removing the old does the same and is easier, code-wise);
        add support for cancelling downloads in the available podcasts view;
        support live status view and download cancelling in the gPodderEpisode
        dialog window by hooking up to DownloadStatusManager as observer
        * src/gpodder/SimpleGladeApp.py: Customize for gPodder (remove usage
