Version 3.1.99.6 - 2010/10/28

	* MUC: don't touch clist group at startup
	
	* MUC: delay RTF header creation (workaround for a nasty bug that could

	* fixed a few minor visual glitches.

Version 3.1.99.5 - 2010/10/15

	! fixes for overlay icons

	* changed location for aero settings. It's no longer considered an advanced

	  up in the info panel or status bar.


Version 3.1.99.2 - 2010/09/02

	  color set for the MUC log background).

	* added custom warning messages when importing a theme via
	  Customize->Message window skin.

	* fixed wrong 32 pixel icon in the container options dialog. Now using
	  the message icon (for which we have both 16 and 32 pixel variants).

	  events (e.g. file transfers).


Version 3.0.1.2 - 2010/08/09

	* finished v5 theme support (improved exporting and importing group
	  chat settings)

	* re-activated global message log background color and separated it

Version 3.0.0.40 - 2010/07/10

	* various fixes and improvements for Windows 7 task bar support.

	* option to warn when closing a tab is gone. A replacement has been added which
	  will show you a warning when you are about to close a window with multiple tabs.
	  This warning uses a custom warning dialog and can be disabled by checking its
	  "Do not show this message again" option.

	* fix for auto switching tabs incorrectly focusing tab when creating a new
	  one in the background.

	* fixed crash when forcefully terminating Miranda while a custom warning

Version 3.0.0.36 - 2010/06/04 - released with Miranda 0.9.alpha#10

	* task bar support (Win 7), removed check for running DWM. Task bar tabs should
	  now work with classic and non-aero themes in Windows 7 (no thumbnails, though,
	  because they require Aero to be active).

	* renamed misleading option for task bar support as it implied to require an Aero
	  theme (which is not the case).

	* another tool bar rendering fix - don't use gradients for the tool bar background
	  at all with classic Windows theme, unless both tool bar background colors are
	  properly set.

	* Aero peek (task bar tabs) now default to enabled.

Version 3.0.0.35 - 2010/05/29

	  issue)

Version 3.0.0.33 - 2010/05/22

	* some issues fixed

	* improved compatibility for old (TabSRMM 2) skins

	* preliminary support for large status icons on the Windows 7 task bar (Miranda 0.9
	  required).

	* option to show avatars on task bar added to container settings (only
	  when running on Windows 7).

	* option to enable/disable Windows 7 task bar features removed (now always on,
	  when running on Windows 7).

	* Added aero peek for the Windows 7 task bar. Per tab thumbnails are partially
	  implemented, so you get a similar UI as seen in other tabbed applications
	  under Windows 7 (IE 8, Opera 10, for example). Still experimental, so it is
	  disabled by default (Message Sessions->Advanced tweaks is where you can enable
	  it). A Restart is required.


Version 3.0.0.32 - 2010/05/16

	* menu bar is now using tool bar colors when using custom message window
	  colors

	  channel log file.
