Version 007
~~~~~~~~~~~
Released: 2009-03-30

Note:
 - The DBus interface of DeviceKit-power may be subject to change in future
   versions of this daemon.
 - The experimental devkit-power-gobject library has no API or ABI guarantees.

New Features:
 - Get rid of internal Object and instead use the GObject property system (Richard Hughes)
 - Move the library directory from libdevkit-power to devkit-power-gobject (Richard Hughes)
 - Ship a shared library. There are now three external projects using copies of
   this, which is rediculous (Richard Hughes)
 - Require I_KNOW_THE_DEVICEKIT_POWER_API_IS_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE (Richard Hughes)

Bugfixes:
 - Fix up DBus interface for CVE-2008-4311 (Stanislav Brabec)
 - Fix g-p-m and DeviceKit-power when running with a permissive dbus. Fixes fd#20882 (Frederic Crozat)
 - Remove use of EggObjList, and make the library more sane (Richard Hughes)
 - Fix compile error in dkp-power. Fixes #20749 (Richard Hughes)

Version 006
~~~~~~~~~~~
Released: 2009-02-10

Bugfixes:
 - Fix compile failure with gcc-4.4.0 and old versions of glib2 (Richard Hughes)
 - Only enable the wakeups polling if a client requires the data (Richard Hughes)
 - Correctly set the power-supply property (David Zeuthen)
 - Don't crash when we limit the resolution of a small dataset (Richard Hughes)
 - Don't sync to disk every 5 seconds, do it every 10 minutes (Richard Hughes)
 - Fix the QoS interface with the proper signature (Richard Hughes)

Version 005
~~~~~~~~~~~
Released: 2009-02-02

New Features:
 - Add a wakeups interface so we can get data from the system over DBus (Richard Hughes)
 - Allow showing the wakeup data in the devkit-power command line tool (Richard Hughes)

Version 004
~~~~~~~~~~~
Released: 2009-01-23

Bugfixes:
 - Fix the battery capacity calculation. Fixes fd#19165 (Richard Hughes)
 - Special case machines where the kernel does not convert charge to power (Richard Hughes)
 - Check all the power supply fields for valid data (Richard Hughes)

Version 003
~~~~~~~~~~~
Released: 2008-12-09

New Features:
 - Implement the .QoS interface -- still proof of concept (Richard Hughes)

Bugfixes:
 - Enable the low power saving code in DkpHistory (Richard Hughes)
 - Don't keep putting off the profile saving in DkpHistory (Richard Hughes)
 - Allow DeviceKit-power to run with the 'fixed' DBus (Richard Hughes)

Version 002
~~~~~~~~~~~
Released: 2008-11-13

New Features:
 - add in CanSuspend and CanHibernate into API (Richard Hughes)
 - add two new properties, has-history and has-statistics (Richard Hughes)
 - add voltage property of a power device (Richard Hughes)
 - all logging for all the other device types too (Richard Hughes)
 - Move object paths so things are rooted under /org/freedesktop/DeviceKit/Power (David Zeuthen)
 - Add functionality to monitor a Watts Up Pro device (Richard Hughes)
 - Turn some methods into properties (David Zeuthen)

Bugfixes:

 - We're a fd.o project (David Zeuthen)
 - Update my email address (David Zeuthen)
 - Update mailing list reference in man pages (David Zeuthen)
 - Update bug report URL to point to our mailing list (David Zeuthen)
 - Nuke devkit-power-on-battery for now (David Zeuthen)
 - Don't report negative rate when charging (Richard Hughes)
 - Remove the battery- and line-power- prefix from the device properties (Richard Hughes)
 - Add DkpStatsObj convenience helpers (Richard Hughes)
 - Save the time to full and time to empty too (Richard Hughes)
 - Don't clear the list when we print it (Richard Hughes)
 - Support getting stats from DkpSupply devices (Richard Hughes)
 - Poll every 10 seconds to get better stats results (Richard Hughes)
 - Work out the statistics by binning them into percentage sized holes (Richard Hughes)
 - Add two remove functions to the generic object list (Richard Hughes)
 - Don't unconditionally set the energy_full to energy_full_design if larger (Richard Hughes)
 - Add a first approximation of a time resolution limiter (Richard Hughes)
 - Expand the client helper library to cover all the base API for gnome-power-manager (Richard Hughes)
 - Use 0 for unknown, not -1 as some values like rate and voltage are valid when negative (Richard Hughes)
 - Use a better resolution limiting function for getting the history to reduce CPU load (Richard Hughes)
 - Match the WUP device on the tty device, not the USB device (Richard Hughes)
 - Fix the include headers for DeviceKit 002 (Richard Hughes)
 - Document how to access the D-Bus service with examples (David Zeuthen)
