Version 1.1 released (updated)

I have just released version 1.1 of QTM. This is the first to feature Wordpress API features, and I expect it to be the first of many (I've had a request for displaying categories in a tree, something which Movable Type doesn't allow, Drupal allows within the MT framework but Wordpress has its own method for). In this release, you can add a category from within QTM.

This version has a few improvements, such as allowing Markdown to be run from within the source bundle and displaying ampersands and quotes in blog, category and account names properly, rather than as XML entities. As ever, see the changelog for details. Source downloads are already available (see downloads box), binaries for OpenSUSE, Fedora and Mandriva are building and may be available when you read this, and binaries for Windows and Ubuntu are to follow.

Update 3rd July: I have just released an updated source bundle, with appropriate licence headers added to the source files for the search widget, in response to a request from a Debian packager. Just to clarify: everything's GPL v2. The search widget in particular is derived from the Qt Designer search widget, which was at the time released under GPL v2 or v3 (and I prefer v2 anyway as it's a straightforward free software licence, without any of the anti-Tivo mission creep). It makes no difference to the binary, but I will probably update them anyway as the binary farms also release source packages for their respective distributions.
