Pagan Daybook 6 Revision 5 (Second Notification) _______________________________________________________________________ Pagan Daybook 6 has been updated. This release: - Updates the compression library that reads the observance database and PNG graphics. This addresses a potentially security issue. If you're running Pagan Daybook, you really want to update to this release pretty much immediately. It also fixes a few memory leaks. - Improves the observance database and nails a few typos. - Improves the observance database logic so it opens a bit quicker. - Speeds up the background rendering engine. - Addresses a potential bug in the window sizing logic that could have created some cosmetic issues at windows sizes greater than 100 percent, depending on how Windows was configured... and possibly having to do with the number of days left 'til the next solstice. - Improves the animation engine... an ongoing quest of epic proportions. - Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software developers never really stop meddling with. - Updates the documentation.
