After quite some time, I'm pleased to announce a new build of bzr-eclipse.

This new build is a major step towards 0.1, it introduces a lot of
fixes and enhancements, also it changes the way bzr-eclipse interacts
with Bazaar, it uses an xmlrpc interface provided by bzr-xmloutput >=
0.5.x.

I want to give a thanks to the various contributors that helped
contributing bug fixes, enhancements, etc:
 * Adrian Wilkins
 * Craig Hewetson
 * Johan Walles
 * All others that submitted bugs, questions, and helped to debug in
different platforms.

Also I want to thanks to the bazaar team for the support, and
Canonical for funding bzr-eclipse development.

The changes since the last one are numerous, but the highlights are:

* Added RevertDialog, that support all the options supported by the
revert command.
* refresh (F5) now also refresh the decorators.
* Move diff action from Team right-click menu to "Compare With" lastest
* Make icon background transparent.
* BIG refactor of the model, now it's splitted in "local" and "remote"
* basic merge support
* Avoid UI blocking in missing, log and push execution (now all use
the Eclipse Job API)
* enhancements to the compare editor/dialogs
 - save support
 - refresh the compare editor when the "editable side" changes.
* Improved commit dialog:
 - resize, maximize
 - "--author" support
 - support for deleted/removed resources
* Huge performance improvements by using the xmlrpc service provided
by bzr-xmloutput >= 0.5.x
* compare with current and with other selected revision in the History view
* various fixes to decorators
* ...and lots of other improvements and fixes
