</inlinemediaobject>I wrote the

plugin for
<link xlink:href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gkrellm">GKrellM</link>
ages ago. And by wrote, I mean “cobbled other plugin code together
into the GKrellM framework”.
Credit where it's due, <personname>
      <firstname>Kurt</firstname>
<surname>Hindenburg</surname>
    </personname> has done more maintenance
than I have in the past few years.</para>

<para xml:id="p2">However, <personname>
      <firstname>Geoff</firstname>
<surname>Kuenning</surname>
    </personname> sent me a couple of patches
the other day that, among other things, claim to fix the occasionally
wildly incorrect ephemeris calculations. Squashing that bug seemed
important enough to me that I went ahead and pushed out a new release.
A “1.0.0” release because I figured that several years of “0.x.x” releases is
enough to get us past the “beta” stage.</para>

<para xml:id="p3">Share and enjoy!</para>
