19-Apr-12 – v0.0.7 Alpha – codename: “Azriel” => new naming convention based on Burekas movie characters

* Rewrite the network layer to be based on Qt instead of kernel sockets
* Rewrite the config layer to use QSettings

– When canceling an address search, Waze may crash
– Stable internet connection is mandatory for first run!
– If a previous release was installed, saved configuration & settings will be removed during installation
– Default log level was set to maximum by default. As a result ~/MyDocs/.waze/postmortem can becoming quite big after several days of use, so you should delete it every once in a while.
– Secure connection is not implemeted yet, so refrain from setting passwords in the application
– This version is compiled in debug mode. So if a crash occurs a core dump might be generated if your phone is properly cofigured (ulimit unlimited). Core dumps are the best way for me to track problems.
– Please assist by reporting issues with emphasis on regressions from v0.0.6
