[Kde-extra-gear] Gwenview 1.2.0 is out

[Aurelien Gateau]

Finally, after 8 development releases and 4 pre-releases, a new stable release 
of Gwenview is out. We hope you will like version 1.2.0! 

Compared to the latest pre-release (1.2.0pre4), this version fixes a crash 
which could occur when you press the 'back' button. 

Compared to the latest stable release (1.0.1), this version includes... too 
many things to list them all! Nevertheless, I would like to mention a few 
important features (in no particular order):
- Support for KIPI plugins, which brings you lots of fancy image manipulation
  possibilities. 
- Support for animated images. 
- Fast MMX-optimized image smoothing. 
- Asynchronous image loading, so the application do not look frozen while
  loading a big image. 
- Two KParts: one to display an image, another to browse folders. 
- Nifty On Screen Display toolbar. 
- Brightness, contrast and gamma adjustment. 

As the main developer, I would like to thank the following people: 
- Lubos Lunak for his work on image loading, image smoothing and a lot of
  other things. 
- Jonathan Riddell for contributing the KParts. 
- Angelo Naselli for his support and help with Bugzilla. 
- Christopher Martin for contributing the man page and for all the bug
  reports.
