GENPO

This release includes a move from Qt3 to the Qt4
library and a significant bugfix for using more
than 16 stops simultaneously. There are other
minor improvements to the GUI layout. Note that
colors in .org files should now be specified using
SVG-compliant names.

One bug was fixed where unexpected MIDI Program
Change events from an external source were causing
a crash. Also, notice that the source is licensed
under the GPL 3 now appears in all source files,
so packaging for distributions should now be
possible.

This release brings one major improvement: GENPO
can now provide up to 32 channels of output (i.e.
simultaneous stops pulled) if your setup can
handle that. There were many other minor
improvements throughout the code. The license was
changed to GPL v3. No changes were made to the
.org DTD/file syntax, so the reference organ still
has a version number of 0.9.5.

This is a major release with a mixture of fixes, enhancements and one significant new feature. Toe Pistons (whole organ combinations) have been added and the .org specification has been extended accordingly. Also, 'Division' and 'Piston' are now preferred names for 'Manual' and 'Preset'. For now the old names are merely deprecated: existing .org files will continue to work for some time yet. All users are encouraged to upgrade.

This release is aimed at improving usability a little, and one requested feature has been added. The main changes are the addition of --singlestop mode, and an --outport= option that directs output to a specified ALSA device. There are also minor performance and build improvements.
