digiKam 0.9.3 release (final)

[Gerhard Kulzer]

digiKam 0.9.3 has been released. 
Dear all digiKam users,
the team is really proud to deliver just in time for Xmas the final 0.9.3 version. 
The tarball can downloaded from SourceForge at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=42641
Many, many thanks go to Gilles, Marcel, Arnd, Mik, Fabien and all the others who worked hard to create this great new release. This release sends a big parcel of useability improvements under your Xmas tree: If it was not already, organizing and navigation have become a snap now with the quick filters, drag&drop and GOTO features on top of an optimized lightable.
NEW FEATURES (since 0.9.2):
AlbumGUI
Drag&Drop : D&D from anywhere into album tree. When the albumview is flattened (x Include Album Sub-tree) images can be d&ded across horizontal separations. That one satisfies wish #142774.
GOTO : A new quick navigation feature has been added: it is now possible (by RMB context menu) to GOTO any other view with pertinent context, e.g. from date view right-click on an image and GOTO the Album or Tag view that this image is associated with. Try any other combination. That covers wish #128231.
Quick filters : 
Add new Filter Bar on bottom of Albums/Tags/Searches/TagsFilter view filter contents based on strings (file names, comments, and tags).
Add Rating filter widget on status bar.
Add MimeType filter widget on status bar.
Add tool to navigate from album, tag and date view to any other view.

Drag&Drop : Support of Drag & Drop to download files from camera GUI to album GUI.
space indicator : Add new bargraph to indicate statistics about free space available on Album library path.

Updated internal CImg library to last stable 1.2.4 (released at 2007/09/26).
