NEW in 1.9.0 - 2014-10-17
=========================

  * Fixes: GB#722795, tracker should not scatter .mediaartlocal folders across filesystem
  * Fixes: GB#724879, Add async calls

NOTE:

  This RELEASE COMPLETELY BREAKS API/ABI on nearly all functions and
  is incompatible with the 1.0 series of releases (the last being
  0.7.0).

  This unstable release is in preparation for the libmediaart-2.0
  series of releases. The version being < 2.0 is purely because 2.0
  will be considered stable.

  From this point on, the API is not expected to change by any large
  amount from what is defined in these releases.

  * tests: Use tap automake testing scripts, fixes output summaries
  * doap: add <programming-language> and 'core' category
  * extract: Fixed process_buffer() len check (was inverted) and artist/title

NOTE:

  This RELEASE BREAKS API/ABI from 0.5.0, return value for
  media_art_get_path() is now a gboolean, not void.


NEW in 0.5 - 2014-07-28
=======================

  * extract: Switch to initable MediaArtProcess object  from _init/_shutdown()
  * extract: Split _process() API into  _process_buffer() and _process_file()
  * extract: Make GFile first parameter for _process_file()
  * extract: Add _SYMLINK_FAILED error and report symlink() failure in get_heuristic()
  * extract: Add GError for _NO_TITLE, which is required in some cases
  * extract: Add GError * reporting right down to the plugins (pixbuf/qt)
  * extract: Use a more logical ordered heuristic for caching strings
  * extract: Refactor media_art_process_file() to simplify the function
  * storage: Make g_message() calls g_debug() calls, output is unnecessary
  * docs: Fixed Makefile so we don't fail on distcheck with --enable-gtk-doc
  * tests: Don't expect media art extraction for NULL data buffer for !images
  * tests: Test for no error with media_art_process_file() with real use case

NOTE:

  This RELEASE BREAKS API/ABI from 0.4.0.

NEW in 0.1 - 2013-11-01
