First release by new maintainer. This is a rollup of some changes which were made in the old upstream SVN repository but never released and some patches which had been made in the Debian packaging. What's here corresponds to the Debian 0.4.2+svn-r40-3 package.
The 0.4.2 release was untagged in SVN, but corresponds to r14, new stuff since then includes:
- Support for more hardware (TS-119, TS-219, TS-41x, all by Martin Michlmayr)
- Support auto power on feature (by Martin Michlmayr)
- Support for the A125 LCD on TS-419P devices (by Bernhard R. Link)
- Support for a daemon mode, including syslog (Byron Bradley)
- Support for disabling the watchdog on TS-219P II and TS-419P II (Helmut Pozimski)
- Various other fixes (Loïc Minier, Martin, Bernhard, Byron)
As well as the change of maintainer I think the addition of the daemon mode warrants the bump to 0.5.0.
