Hi!

Ok, this can wait; it's not yet ready here and even if it were it would be
completely untested. So I just made the v1.01 source package available.

Yep. There are so many versions currently in CVS, with poorly descriptive
branch names, so that I made a short list of them here:

	branch name:			version number:
	^^^^^^^^^^^^			^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
	MANY_PROJECTS_BRANCH		v1.01
	BEFORE_BONOBO_BRANCH		v1.50
	HEAD				???

So, I just made a bugfix-release v1.01. Later once these library
configuration issues are solved, the v1.50 could rather rapidly become
v2.00 (it would have more consistent GUI but still be a gnome-1 app). Only
after that I could start working with the cvs HEAD version more seriously.

Ok, Merry Christmas to all of you!  :)
