Release History
---------------

1.1.0-beta.4
============

This is a beta release and may contain bugs or unfinished features. Please
provide bug reports or feedback via: https://github.com/mu-editor/mu/issues/new

* During the beta phase, we're moving to a fortnightly release cadence. Since
this release is a week late, expect the next one in a week's time - 26th
April.
* Carlos made many changes to clean up the specification for required modules
used by the installer. This will make supporting and tracking Mu's
dependencies MUCH easier. Thank you Carlos!
* Huge thanks to Dan Halbert of Adafruit who contributed a significant amount
of refactoring to the CircuitPython mode. As a result Mu now uses the
`adafruit-board-toolkit` module for device identification, among many other
helpful changes
[described in Dan's pull request](https://github.com/mu-editor/mu/pull/1371).
Thank you Dan..!
* Carlos was on fire... he also fixed a bug in the file-copy dialog when the
context menu was opened with an empty list of files.
* Carlos (again), fixed some outstanding documentation issues for supporting
Raspbian Buster (and newer). These are now at https://mu.rtfd.io/.
* Carlos (again, again) tidied up various aspects of the Makefile so there is
only a single source of truth for running various utilities and commands.
* Logging was another focus for this release. Now that we have a few weeks
worth of crash reports we've been able to look at the parts of the
application that cause most grief and add extra-logging in various locations.
Tim put in a great effort to make sure the "first run" and other virtual
environment based aspects of Mu now have clearer and more useful logging and
throw more useful exceptions, closer to the source of the problem, for the
resulting crash report. Carlos ensured the IPython kernel installation was
properly logged.
* We ensured various key packages were pinned to particular versions to
maximise compatibility with older versions of Python still found in schools.

There are many pull requests and work items currently in flight and they'll be
landing very soon as the overall quality and robustness of Mu significantly
improves. Many thanks to everyone who continues to help, support and contribute
to the ongoing development of Mu.
