Hi,

I've just moved a big chunk of work from my pbienst branch on Launchpad to the 
trunk there. 

The most important user visible changes are:

* scheduler improvements: less chance of seeing the same card two times right 
after each other, failed cards in 'learning ahead' will now be shown again 
during 'learning ahead'
* a plugin for a cramming scheduler which goes through your cards in random 
order and does not affect the normal scheduler data. It is visually 
distinguished from the regular scheduler by having only two grade buttons 
(Right and Wrong)
* more flexible and faster startup scheme
* improvements in the Windows Mobile client
* reworked the library design so that during review, the library has to do 10 
to 20 times less work. The result is that on my WM phone, review time is now 
completely dominated by the GUI toolkit, so things look good.
* multiple people can now use a single instance of the library at the same 
time. Useful if somebody wants to implement a high-performance web server on 
top of Mnemosyne

One could argue that many of these features are not essential for a 2.0 
release. That is true, but implementing them has brought to light many 
weaknesses in the library design, which are now fixed. The increases the 
chances that a plugin people write for 2.0 has a much bigger chance of 
continuing to work in later releases. BTW, I encourage people who plan on 
writing plugins to start playing with the current code, to see if there are 
more weaknesses to be corrected.

>From now on, the subversion tree on Sourceforge will no longer be updated, but 
you can follow all development here:

Cheers,

Peter
