Dear all,

Zim release 0.75 is now available. It took quite a bit longer than I had
expected (as usual, so much for estimations...).

Highlights are the reworked interface for the tasklist plugin and updates
to a number of other plugins (see the log below).

Less noticeable, but a big chunk of work was the refactoring of internal
APIs for filesystem access and parsetree handling. These should result in
better stability and easier maintenance going forward.

Please help updating the translations here:
https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/zim/develop/ (notice we are now
translating on the "develop" branch) and I'll release a 0.75.1 version in a
month or so with all translation updates.

Regards,

Jaap
