Announcement: Official Version 1.1.0, welcome @xdnax!

Hello everybody,

it has been quite a while since I wrote my last post here. The reason for this is rather simple:

Apart from being very busy in the last months, I realized some time ago that I was investing more time in reading and answering posts in this thread than doing actual implementation work for BCL, which is definitely not my intended workflow.

Therefore, I shifted my attention completely to GitHub, where the workflow was/is much more efficient.

Some people here suggested to officially fork this project and continue it elsewhere. I want to say the following to those people:

While it is in general a good thing that dead projects are forked and continued, good behavior demands to first open a GitHub issue asking whether the project is to be continued before suggesting an official fork, which did afaik not happen.

Furthermore, a simple look at GitHub would have clearly revealed at all times that I was reacting to issues there on a regular basis, so our project was hardly inactive, and surely not dead!

Luckily, [MENTION=6280728]xdnax[/MENTION] was considerate and smart enough to keep mentioning that he wants to respect our work and keep his fork unofficial for the moment, which deserves a huge THANK YOU from my side!

Talking about [MENTION=6280728]xdnax[/MENTION]:

He did a great job in contributing to the development of this app during the last months.

Unfortunately, I didn't have his contributions on my radar for quite a while.

Since we love to work with other motivated and decent developers like him, we are happy to announce that he is now the third "official developmer" of BCL.

Welcome to the team, [MENTION=6280728]xdnax[/MENTION]!

Some people noticed the appearance of a semi-official version 1.0.5.

Although I never had time to publish an official build, I indeed created this version and uploaded it with a "v1.0.5" tag to our GitHub repo.

This is where the F-Droid build system picked it up and created an APK from it, which I myself wasn't aware of for some while. Sorry for the confusion guys...

During the last days, we organized our internal communication and unified our contributions to bring out a new official version.

Well, here we go: I'm happy to announce that we finally release version 1.1.0!

, and is not a major version step because it doesn't introduce any breaking behavior changes.

Happy charging, opening post will be updated soon!
