* clientgui/ValidateEmailAddress.cpp: Use a much simpler regex to validate
  e-mail addresses. This also allows addresses that contain '+' in their
  local-part. This regex is also used in BOINC's PHP function
  is_valid_email_address() in html/inc/email.inc. (closes: #393948)

* Added French (fr.po) by Cyril Brulebois

4. By Frank S. Thomas <email address hidden> on 2006-08-27

[ Frank S. Thomas ]
* New upstream release.
* Added the header file lib/gui_rpc_client.h to the boinc-dev package as
  requested by Folkert van Heusden.
* debian/control:
  - Removed Greg Norris <email address hidden> from the Uploaders field.
* debian/rules:
  - Applied patch from Robert Millan <email address hidden> which simplifies the
    platform override for i386. We are now using --target instead of the
    --build and --host switches. This also needed some changes in
    boinc-client.install and boinc-manager.install. Thanks Robert for the
    patch. (closes: #383871)
* debian/patches/:
  - Added 01_amd64-disable-platform-reset.dpatch from Robert Millan
    <email address hidden>. This patch prevents that projects are reset when the
    platform name in client_state.xml does not match the platform name the
    client was compiled for and it also sets the platform name from
    client_state.xml as the valid platform name which will be used for
    scheduler requests. This patch only affects AMD64. (related to: #366741)
* Explain in boinc-client's README.Debian how to modify the BOINC core
  client so that it downloads 32bit applications on AMD64. The
  01_amd64-disable-platform-reset.dpatch patch is mandatory for this
  procedure to work correctly. (also related to: #366741, LP#51948)
* Added two helper scripts (move-boinc-dir.sh and use-32bit-on-amd64.sh)
  as examples in the boinc-client package.

[ Frank S. Thomas ]
* New upstream release.
  - Display Account Manager names correctly in BOINC Manager. This fixes
    Ubuntu bug #48246.
* debian/control:
  - Really bumped the Standards-Version to 3.7.2.
* Added the boinc_gl.h header to the boinc-dev package. This file is needed
  to compile SETI@home's graphics component.
* Added a hint to use "update-alternatives --set x-www-browser [...]" to
  manually set the x-www-browser alternative to boinc-manager's
  README.Debian. See Ubuntu bug #48766 for more details.
* Use /usr/bin/python as interpreter for update-boinc-applinks instead of
  /usr/bin/python2.4 and make boinc-client depend on "python (>= 2.3)" to
  avoid the unnecessary strict dependency on Python 2.4.
* Made debian/rules compatible with sarge's version of dpkg-architecture and
  added libcurl-ssl-dev as alternative for the libcurl3-openssl-dev build
  dependency. These changes aid in backporting BOINC to sarge. Thanks to
  Robert Millan for the patch. (closes: #373089)
* debian/boinc-client.postinst:
  - Make sure that the group boinc exists before trying to create the user
    boinc. Thanks to Christoph Martin for the report. (closes: #372950)

2. By Frank S. Thomas <email address hidden> on 2006-05-06

[ Frank S. Thomas ]
* New upstream release.
  - Really fix the connection to a remote machine bug. (closes: #360143)
  - Fix another FTBFS bug with G++ 4.1, thanks again to Martin Michlmayr.
    (closes: #358650)
* Removed watch file because upstream stopped providing nightly tarballs.
* debian/control:
  - Bumped Standards-Version from 3.6.2 to 3.7.2, no changes required.
* debian/patches/:
  - Removed 02_wx2.6-configure.ac.dpatch and 03_wx2.6-with-unicode.dpatch,
    both were included upstream.
  - Updated 07_use-sensible-browser.dpatch to use sensible-browser only,
    because upstream's attempt to start a browser fails miserably.
