Hi again,

I've put the release on the website. Thanks to everyone who helped - that's at 
least Alex Harrington, Marco Fagiolini, Richard Klemm, Martin Heisterman and 
probably one or two people I forgot.

The bump in the version number from 1.0 to 1.5 reflects the fact that I really 
think a _lot_ has happened:

- Offscreen canvases - once you get the hang of them, they are really 
incredibly useful. Full documentation is here: 
https://www.libavg.de/wiki/index.php/Offscreen_Rendering
- GPU Effects - I'll put up documentation for these in the next few weeks.
- Multitouch driver model - this opens up libavg to all sorts of multitouch 
devices. Currently, the really interesting driver is TUIO, because in the 
multitouch world, nearly everything speaks TUIO. But there is a real driver 
model here, so the potential is there to support all devices we need.

Currently, my idea for the short/mid term is to work on:
- Easier installs, especially for the source builds.
- More documentation, more examples.
- Win7 and Linux multitouch drivers.
- Canvas and GPU effect API consolidation.

I'd also like to open up a discussion on where you want libavg to go. Where are 
shortcomings? Are there any - preferably easy - things we can do to open the 
library to a larger audience?

Cheers,

  Uli
