retroshare (0.5.1-0.XXXXXX~YYYYYY) YYYYYY; urgency=low

  * Improvements

     - Plugin system 
        * Added configuration saving for plugin manager and serialization methods
        * added a list of accepted plugin hashes
        * added plugin widget for each plugin in settings, to allow enabling/disabling plugins
        * updated LinkCloud plugin to new rsPlugin class
        * put the addconfiguration for plugin manager in rsinit.cc a bit earlier to allow to load 
          the list of accepted hashes early enough
        * added icon for disabled plugins
        * added missing Q_INIT_RESOURCE call to get the plugins icon loading correctly
 
     - GUI 
        * updated Dht and Nat Indicators to accurately reflect Network status. Roughly:
           - DHT. Off:     gray, ERROR:   red, NO RS PEERS:           yellow, GOOD: green.
           - NAT. Offline: gray, BAD NET: red, NO DHT, or FIREWALLED: yellow, GOOD: green
        * added Advanced mode to the GUI
           - Switched ServerPage to use netMode, rather than tryNetMode. This fixes the Network Status.
           - Added "Advanced Mode" to Settings GeneralPage.
           - Store / Set Advanced Mode via rsConfig::get/setConfigurationOptions.
           - removed %0D%0A from Linux / OSX emails - made it Windows Only.
           - updated GetStartedDialog text.
           - disable GetStartedDialog is AdvancedMode is set.
           - Enabled buttons for "Invite Friends" and "Add Friend". Linked to Email Invite, and Connect Friend Wizard.
           - Switched out FAQ for links to website, and email support buttons.
        * Added Basic Dht Details Window to Retroshare GUI.
           - created gui/dht/DhtWindow class.
           - brought across the basic structure from PeerNetQt... will be a condensed version of that GUI.
           - added to status Menu.
           - enabled via #define USE_DHTWINDOW  (which is defined! in MainWindow at the moment).
           - Dht Details only displays Dht Peers at the moment.
        * Net, Dht and Configuration changes.
           - set PortForward in NetStateBox when the Network has been setup.
           - add GeneralConfig to rsConfig external interface.

        * Indent text of the channel message and set it to selectable.

          normal RetroShare systray icon. The user can choose, which notify icon is shown as 
          single icon in systray or with the normal RetroShare icon.
 
     - Key mamagement
        * added a signature add/remove button in connect wizard, only when gpgme-1.3.1 or greater is used, 
          based on the availability of the GPGME_EXPORT_MODE_MINIMAL option.
 
     - Connectivity
        * Simplification of p3ConnectMgr => p3LinkMgr, p3PeerMgr & p3NetMgr.
           - p3peermgr now uses RS_NET_MODE_XXXX instead of RS_NET_MODE_TRY_XXXX
           - p3netmgr maintains both TRY and ACTUAL mode (not visible through old interface -- TO FIX)
           - added default to UPNP mode.
        * Increased TCP WAIT time to allow external port to stabilize.
        * Improvements to tcponudp library to allow multiple UdpStacks / ports, with alternative receivers.
        * Improved a lot UDP Connection Code

           - Export UDP Addresses to DhtWindow.
           - disabled DIRECT UDP connections (Not always stable, especially if you are firewalled, and not 
             needed as a TCP connection can be made!)
           - Added DropPeers() as NON-ACTIVE (this allows peers which aren't VISIBLE to still try and connect)
           - Resurrected the UdpStunner code, and improved it.
           - Added UdpRelay code.
           - Modified startup code and ssludp code to use the new tcponudp and add a stunner.
        * Added notifications of Failed Connection Attempts in both ways
 
     - Services
        * Refactored p3chatservice move avatar declaration to p3chat header and encapsulating config methods
        * added www.myip.dk, and removed showmyip.org address from extaddrfinder
 
     - Internationalization
        * Fixed german language.
        * Changed the generation of the gpg key and location to utf8. 
 
     - DHT
        * Added Bloom filter to speed up finding RS peers in DHT.
        * Added External DHT Interface to display Connection Information.
        * extended p3bitdht to provide RsDht interface. (p3bitdht_interface.cc)
        * Switched on Dht "Attach" Mode if RS is firewalled. (and not nice firewall).
        * Added interfaces to enable AttachMode switch.
        * Updated bdboot file.
 
     - Tests
        * Restored and improved regression test for tcponudp
        * Added another Test UdpLayer: TimedUdpLayer, This simulates the firewalled situation, by
          only accepting packets after 60 seconds.
        * Added quick and dirty BitDht Packet check. test against "d1:" for the first 3 bytes. This should 
          not conflict with Stun, Relay or TOU packets.
 
     - packaging
        * Added win32 build bat for libbitdht
 
  * Bug fixes
     - Removed popup window for file copy error, and redirected the message to std::cerr, to save users.
     - Set maximum port value to 65535 instead of old arbitrary value of 50000, and warned about 
       system-reserved ports in server settings gui enabled sorting and added dht icon for the window
     - Fixed bug in dnsresolver reset function
     - Silly Bug, overwritten the mConnectFlag with the Bandwidth parameter.
     - Added missing mutex protection that caused random SIGSEGV in p3disc
     - Corrected a bug due to reading uint64_t with wrong format on some systems, which caused the hash cache to sometime fail
     - Fixed bug for 'copy error' and losing cache data conflict in unix and windows style directory 
       names led to cleaning of remote and local directories in Cachestrapper::loadlist()
     - Bugfixes to serialization
         * print out messages when serialisation fails.
         * removed BUG in TlvGetString() which allows a zero length TLV 
     - Fixed startup bug (loops into FAILURE)
     - Fixed buggy rs_inet_ntoa
     - Fixed a bunch of apple gcc warnings. mainly for(;;); => for(;;) ;
     - Stops loading of a cache in p3GroupDistrib::loadFileMsgs on shutdown of RetroShare.
     - Fixed early initialization of QIcon in LinksCloud plugin
     - Fixed duplicate msgs found between cachefile being formed (caused by not marking cache opt loaded files as local or not)
       also missing own-msgs bug caused by not accounting for msgs created by users
     - Added a name to the RsMutex class, allowing debugging of the waiting time for a lock of RsMutex in 
       rsthreads.h with #define RSMUTEX_DEBUG 300. That means all locks waiting longer than 300ms are logged into the stderr.
     - Added missing notify when sending a message to an offline user.
     - DHT code:
         * fixed up buggy overloading for the udplayer (for testing).

         * removed unused variables from query data structure.
         * #defined out debugging in bdSpace, removed old functions.

         * tweaked bdconnection debugging.
         * increase CONNECTION_MAX_TIMEOUT from 30 => 45. wasn't enough!
         * Limited bdQuery::QueryIdlePeriod to 15min (was unlimited).
         * added bdQuery::PotentialPeer cleanup functions - for more robust reporting.
         * fixed bdQuery debugging printouts.
         * Implemented BITDHT_QFLAGS_UPDATES flag.
      - TcoOnUdp code:
         * Reduce Maximum Transmission size from 1500 -> 1000. This is the cause of Failed Connections. 
           It looks like UDP packets are being truncated from 1520 -> 1492 bytes, and this is killing the
