  (Format: Year/Month/Day)
 Changes for 1.0rc3:
+*07/01/07:
+   * Support per-window transparency settings.
+      - new "Transparency" menu in the window menu
+      - new apps file attribute: 
+         [alpha] {int int} (or just {int})
+        Where numbers represent focused and unfocused transparency, 
+        respectively. One number only will be used for both.
+      - Also, show toggle status for shade and stick in window menu.
+      (Simon and thanks Julien Trolet, dmxen at sourceforge dot net)
