Is there a DEB package for hardy or do I need to wait a little bit longer?

I'm assuming you're talking about a .deb for Hardy. I'm working on that today.

One thing I do not understand with miro, is that it is opensource, yet I cannot find changelog for each version. I'd like to know what is new or fixed when a new version is released.

Andrew: We post them to the Miro blog every time we do a release: https://develop.participatoryculture.org/trac/democracy/wiki/1.0ReleaseNotes https://develop.participatoryculture.org/trac/democracy/wiki/1.1ReleaseNotes https://develop.participatoryculture.org/trac/democracy/wiki/1.2ReleaseNotes

Thank you for the links. Although I cannot find these links listed anywheres on the website. Usually there is a link on the download page for most software to the changelog. The best I have been able to do is eventually get a link to https://develop.participatoryculture.org/trac/democracy/wiki but then even on that page no link to changelogs. Another way is I go to the wiki (I forget how I even got there) http://www.getmiro.com/documentation/index.php/Main_Page which has a link to 1.1 changelog but no mention of 1.2 Any chance of a better link to changelogs when new version is released, maybe at http://www.getmiro.com/download/ ? Near impossible to find changelog. Google doesn't have any good links either when searching.

Ahh, I now see the news release announcement at http://www.getmiro.com/blog/ at the bottom of the page. Although after about 6 more blog posts that link will be sent to the archives, so even more searching needed. And right now looking through the archives will take many clicks to get to the release announcement (Assuming I knew to look there). I hope to see a "changelog" link to the changelog in future releases on download page. :)

Andrew: I think that's a good idea. I'll talk with Dean and see how we can make that happen.

Thanks. I also noticed that the windows version is at 1.2.2 But the changelog is at https://develop.participatoryculture.org/trac/democracy/wiki/1.2ReleaseNotes Does the 1.2 release notes include all 1.2.0, 1.2.1, 1.2.2? All combined into one changelog? Same as the blog announcement only refers to 1.2 release. Is it supposed to be mentioned anywheres what the changes were in 1.2.1 and 1.2.2 ? Or is this difficult to do since each OS uses a different version (maybe 3 different changelogs?)?

I added notes for 1.2.1 and 1.2.2. Last week was pretty crazy--both of these were critical fix releases for Windows users. We did 1.2.1 on the Mac as well to fix a problem with co-branding--but that didn't affect "regular" users at all. 1.2.3 will come out soon with xulrunner 1.9 support for gtkx11 and we'll catch up all the platforms at that point. Sorry about that. We should be more organized about release notes. I'll try to help Janet with them in the future so that they're more accurate and useful.

Thanks for the info. I look forward to future releases :)
