-=== Version 1.0.5
-
-Nautilus 1.0.5 contains more speedups, and some features and bug
-fixes.
-
-Many of the changes for this release were done by hackers at Red Hat
-(Jonathan Blandford, Havoc Pennington, Alex Larsson, Owen Taylor) for
-their Nautilus release, and rolled into the main Nautilus sources,
-mostly by Alex. Thanks also to Alan Cox for doing a profile of system
-calls Nautilus was making and driving some simple but effective
-speedups.
-
-As a practical matter, many of the changes here that were inspired by
-changes that others made or patches they submitted may still be marked
-"(Darin)" since I did the actual check-i. Similarly, changes done by
-others may be marked "(Alex)" since he did the rolling in even though
-others did the original code (sometimes I tried to guess).
-
-Here's a partial list of changes since Nautilus 1.0.4:
-

-=== Version 1.0.4
-
-Nautilus 1.0.4 contains some speedups, largely due to the work done by
-Yoann Vandoorselaere to investigate what makes it slow. There's still
-plenty of room for more work there.
-
-There are also lots of other minor improvements since Nautilus 1.0.3.
-
-A partial list of changes since Nautilus 1.0.3:
-
- Fixes to bugs and other changes to speed up Nautilus's
- display of new directories (Yoann, Darin, Maciej)
-
- FreeBSD compile fixes (Darin, Gene)

- Fixes to compile with C compilers that don't allow empty
- structures (Darin)
-
- Fix to the MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME setting code to make the Mozilla
- component work in more configurations. (peter@ximian.com, Darin)
-
- Make thumbnails always go in the home directory if "Make
- Folder Appearance Details Public" is set to Never (John,
- Michael Rothwell)
-
- Fixed a few small i18n problems. (Darin)
-
- Use Bonobo to handle additional key bindings, instead of using
- our own hack code. (Darin)

- Eazel search page. (Darin)

- Frederic Devernay, Darin, Benedikt Roth, Andy)
-
-We won't be porting Nautilus to GNOME 2 until the library freeze date
-(at the request of the library developers, Michael Meeks mainly) so
-this is still a GNOME 1 source tree for now.
