All the basic GUI elements have now been added, so this is a good place to tag the release, which was tagged with the name v0.3.0. The various files (license, read me, release notes, etc.) were updated for this development release.
It was also noticed the about box (nor the test output) contained the full GPL statement, only the copyright and warranty statements. The CommandLine class was updated to reflect this, but the test output was not changed so that the regression tests continue to pass. The About box was updated to contain the full GPL statement along with the required Oxygen icons license statement and web links.
The original release numbering is again being used. While Git did sort the tags as desired with the '-' developmental release before the '.' official release (so v0.2.0 will be listed after v0.2-6); GitHub (on the tags page) appears to only look at the numbers ignoring the separator characters, so v0.2.0 is sorted before v0.2-1 instead of after v0.2-6, which could be very confusing even though a fuzzy time of the release is listed, it's not obvious, and there is no way to sort by this time.
Since all 0.x releases are development releases, there is no reason to have development development releases. For now on, only the last one of the development release series will be uploaded to Sourceforge, whatever is release number is at that point. The source code of the others can be downloaded as archives from GitHub on the tags page. The release number for any patches needed for an official release will simply increment the last (patch) number and re-uploaded.
