69 maemo-mapper (2.1) unstable; urgency=low
71 * Changed GPS interaction to use GPSD exclusively, including the new
72 libgpsmgr framework. This allows Maemo Mapper to automatically find a GPS
73 receiver (no need to specify one in Settings, although Maemo Mapper will
74 try to prefer the one you specify). Hopefully, this will also address the
75 "hanging" issues that people have been having, and it should also make the
76 migration to Chinook easier.
77 * Added an initial stab at supporting the internal GPS receiver on the N810.
78 Use the "File Path" receiver type with "/dev/pgps" to use the N810's
79 internal GPS receiver. ("/dev/pgps" is now the default.)
80 * Added the framework for a DBUS interface, including a single DBUS method
81 (set_view_center). More to come later....

125 Mapper should be able to handle more downloads at a time now, but keep in
126 mind that it's not unlimited. 2 GB of downloads is too much.
127 * Fixed the spurious straight lines in the drawing of tracks and routes.
128 * Fixed bug with not downloading higher-zoom maps when no maps were
129 available in the current zoom level and the current zoom level is not a
130 downloadable zoom level (per the download zoom steps variable).

176 * Modified the Waypoint Notification Window to use a progress bar; this
177 should also fix some of the flicker that used to occur.
178 * Improved the robustness of bluetooth receiver error handling (no more
179 crashing when out of range).
180 * Improved memory utilization.

235 * Added Zoom In/Out buttons to the View menu.
