SchoolTool 1.5.0 released

 

Hello,

SchoolTool 1.5.0 is now available. This is the first release from
development series leading to 1.6 release for Ubuntu Maverick in
October.

It is not a stable release and is not recommended for anyone already
using SchoolTool in their schools, and as such is made available in a
separate PPA, instructions below.

Changes since the last release, 1.4.1, are:

- Introduce minimalistic learning levels.
- Introduce versioned catalogs.
- Speed up editing of section learners and instructors
(https://launchpad.net/bugs/599258)
- Allow applying timetable for a part of the term only
(https://launchpad.net/bugs/532428)
- XLS Importer catches errors before trying to create objects.
(https://launchpad.net/bugs/306339)
- TimeTable object now has consecutive_periods_as_one flag for use by journal
- Removed SchoolTool logo from PDF footers (https://launchpad.net/bugs/561558)
- Update translations (ca, en_AU, eu, ne, pl, tr)

Bugfixes will be backported to the stable series and released as 1.4.2 shortly.

To install this release on Ubuntu Lucid, add the development PPA to
your software sources:

  sudo apt-add-repository ppa:schooltool-owners/dev
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install python-schooltool

A SchoolTool Lyceum Journal 0.7.0 was also released with the joined
consecutive periods feature.
