# Release Notes

This is the first public release of gentoo. It is far from "done", but was released anyway because:

- People in Obsession kept nagging about it.
- Someone said "Release early, release often".
- It's fun to see if there's any interest in a program like this.
- The autumn semester is coming up, so I development will slow. A good time for a release.

Things that I want to include but haven't gotten around to writing yet:

- A way to design menus and assign them to keys & buttons.
- A way to configure keyboard shortcuts.
- Progress reporting and better error recovery for file operations.
- Online help, tooltips and so on.
- ...(whatever comes to mind)...

If you have any questions or comments on anything involving this program, please don't hesitate to send them to me at emil@obsession.se. To make my life easier, please try to include the word gentoo in the message's subject. Also, check out the contributing page!
