V0.4 - The late release
Heya!
Long time not much activity here. I wanted to create the 0.4 release with most issues closed, all known bugs resolved and so on. But my personal time and focus these days is not on Kristall anymore, so i didn't really do anything in the last months.
But as people say: Everything worth doing is worth doing poorly.
So instead of pushing the task of doing a proper release further and further into the future, i'll better just tag a release version, and call it a day. This way, people using package managers can get the latest and best features as well, as Kristall had tremendous changes and advances since 0.3.
Sadly, no release notes this version, as i just don't have the time for them. Maybe, in the future, i get a spare day where i can git diff the V0.3 and V0.4 and write a nice release notes section, update the manual and so on.
But better make a not optimal release than doing no release. At least today.
Have fun with all the updates and sorry for not doing this waaaaay earlier.
Best regards
