Hi,
Great we now have Beaver 0.3.0.1 online! It will be the start of the big succes of Beaver. First a few things about 0.3.0.1 that can be solved in the next release, then more about the next release.

If I open the About window, I saw beaver.orig as name of the program. This is the real name of the executable, Tobias made this construction. But the About dialog uses APP_NAME as the name of the program, which is #define'd in main.h as Beaver. Weird. When I try to open the index.html and about.html pages from the Beaver website in Beaver, it can't open them and says they're not UTF-8. Both pages open fine in Geany and dloads.html also opens fine in Beaver.
The --help and -? flags for Beaver don't seem to work anymore.

I will try to add a 0.3.0.1 screenshot to the site, if you guys have more, please add them.

On which CVS module are we going to develop the next release? What will be the name of the next release, including GtkUiManager, XML syntax files and plugins? 0.3.2? 0.4.0? I'd say 0.4.0.

A thing that I would really like, although not necessary for development, is an artist. We need someone to redesign the Beaver logo (about dialog) and make some new images for the new website. We could ask someone to do this as a one-time-job. But what I actually want, is an artist that is a staying part of the Beaver team. That way he/she can design approximately 3 fresh images for every new release. Let's say, one for the About window, one for the Prefs window and one for the Plugins window. You may think: why all those images? Well, we must have a distinguishing element that sets us apart from other editors: Beaver is both lightweigt and looks cool. Trevor, could you put a demand for an artist on Savannah?

And who's going to send a mail to DSL? Please make it a nice mail, we don't want to lose them as Beaver user.
