Mingle v0.1 -- the Familiar Framework Contact Manager

Greetings,
    I'd like to announce the availability of v0.1 of Mingle, the contact
manager, based on the Python ``Familiar Framework''. It's in its infancy,
but it supports some of the following features:

    * Editing and viewing individual contact information, including: email
      addresses, JPEG photos, phone numbers, physical addresses,
      and birthdates.

    * Searching based on name components (e.g. first, middle, and last).

    * It supports saving contact information to ``disk'' (hey, we needed
      a third bullet item).

Mingle serves as the proof of concept, and test bed, for the different facets
of the Familiar Framework. People who worked on putting together this release
where: Gareth Greenaway (development), Dave Guy (QA Labrat), and Myself
(development). We'd like feedback, so feel free to comment. The source
can be obtained from the following locations:

    http://www.andern.org/~a7r/ipaq/familiar/framework-v0.1.tar.gz
    http://www.handhelds.org/pub/linux/dists/familiar/pre-release/bleeding/framework-v0.1.tar.gz

The latest code is also available from handhelds.org CVS, under
``familiar/framework''. Have fun.
