Dear all digiKam fans and users!

The digiKam development team is happy to release 0.9.3-beta1 
(http://digikam3rdparty.free.fr/0.9%20releases/digikam-0.9.3-beta1.tar.bz2). 
The digiKam tarball can be downloaded from SourceForge as well 
(http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=42641).

digiKam 0.9.3 will probably be the last release before we will switch over to 
KDE4 which will see a totally revamped digiKam.

New features of the camera interface:

 * The camera interface is now used to import new images into collections.
 * There are new options to download pictures and delete them from the camera
   at the same time.
 * Support of Drag & Drop to download files from camera to album window.
 * A progress bar has been added to indicate the available space in the
   Album Library Path

Improvements:

 * Updated internal CImg library to last stable 1.2.3 (released at 2007/08/24)
 * Color scheme theme are now XML based (instead X11 format).
