+ Automatically save/pause VMs running in background, except for
ones under express installation.

don't end up with a very tiny box display on hidpi screens when
no autoresolution is in effect (e.g boot loader screen or

+ Don't reveal fullscreen topbar on pointer over edges to not

edge gestures (as used in many modern operating systems) in the

ugly in classic-mode where we have 3 buttons.

sidebar.

in different views.
+ Add Esc shortcut for cancelling wizard.
+ Focus 'Create' button on last page of wizard so that user can
quickly confirm by hitting 'Enter'.
+ Existing disk capacity should not be taken into account to
calculate the maximum value for disk capacity. It should simply
be the space available on host disk.
+ Set disk size in correct units for running machines. We were
setting size to valuex1024.
+ Refresh disk info after resizing disk of running machines.
Otherwise we keep showing the older value when user goes back
to properties.
+ Disable 'save on timeout' all together for storage volume size
change since that easily leads to horrible user experience: You
accidently increase the capacity to too high value and if you
are not quick enough to change it again, you'll not be able to
correct this ever as we don't support shrinking of volumes.
+ Allow shrinking storage volumes in wizard.
+ Fix a crasher bug.
+ Add info about runtime deps and reporting bugs to README.
+ Add a HACKING file for people interested in developing Boxes.
+ Report progress for non-http(s) downloads as well.
+ Don't register for 'x-content/bootable-media' mimetype as in
most cases that results in user given the option to launch
Boxes for an ISO9660 device and then Boxes failing to handle
it.

each Fedora version anymore.

- Update to version 3.3.90:
+ Box creation wizard:
- Present bootable medias and user's ISO files on 'Source'
page. For fetching/tracking user's ISOs, we make use of
Tracker.
- Teach the Wizard to accept 'qemu..://' sources.
- Move to 'Preparation' once file/media is selected.
- Display notification against errors during 'prepare' and
'create' steps. In case of 'prepare', we go back to previous
step since user is very likely to be able to fix the issue.
- Add mnemonic accelerator to 'Continue' button.
+ More reliable tracking of installations. Previously, Boxes used
to forget ongoing installations once user quit the application
and that would lead to installations looping forever.
+ Don't take post-installation steps for saved domains. Saved
domains are stopped as well so them being stopped doesn't mean
that first boot is done and its time to perform post install
setup.
+ Launch new domain in fullscreen, unless express installations
is going to be performed on it.
+ Make user deletion work for saved VMs.
+ Leave fullscreen when going back to collection view.

Useful for debugging.

+ Fix build against git master of libvirt-glib.
+ Confine file chooser dialog in creation wizard to local
filesystem.
+ Be slightly helpful to users when they are typing URL manually
in creation wizard.
+ Fix recent regression in non-express installations.
+ Express install:
+ Support 32-bit Windows 7.
+ Add user to 'wheel' group in Fedora, rather than editing the
sudoers file.

+ Hide titlebar when maximized.
+ Use overlay toolbar only in fullscreen mode.
+ Fix auto-hidden topbar not being shown again.
+ Save default libvirt connection machines on quit.
+ Delete storage volume along with its VM.
+ Box creation wizard:
- Don't accept empty URL.
- Add a sound card device.
- Add devices based on what is supported by the OS.
- Put VM images in XDG_DATA_DIR, not XDG_CONFIG_DIR.
- Express install:
. Fix a race-condition by adding a missing 'yield' keyword.
. Disable first boot menu for Fedora.
. Single password setup: User now need to only authenticate
once when selecting the box using the password provided at
box creation time and not inside the guest.
. Use floppy image only for Windows OSs.
+ Use ngettext where appropriate.
+ Various other functional and non-functional improvements and
fixes.
+ Bugs fixed: bgo#665812, bgo#666354, bgo#666355, bgo#666366,

'undo' button until after 6 seconds of deletion.

for new VMs.

+ Box creation wizard:
- Make wizard topbar a real toolbar. This way, the window can
be moved, and it can be styled correctly.
- Only return from wizard to collection view if box creation
succeeds.
- Skip directly to 'Preparation' step when URI is passed
through commandline argument.
- Bump default storage allocation to 20 GiB.
. This should be adequate storage for most OSs out there.
. We use the dynamically growing storage format (qcow2) so
actual amount of disk space used is completely dependent on
the OS.
- Special handling of live and unknown OS media:
. Create initially transient box and only make it permanent
if media installs anything on the storage.
. Skip 'Setup' and 'Review' pages.
- Only boot new VMs from hard drive after something is actually
installed on the storage.
- Accept path for URI as well.
- More details at summary page on VM creation.

SPICE's efficiency.
. Enable X/graphics for Fedora.

. Fix some fundamental issues with Windows 2008. Now at least
most of the installation is automated.

installation of Microsoft Windows XP.
