-_Subsurface_ 4.5 Beta 3 - October 2015
-----------------------------------------
-
-Some of the changes since _Subsurface_ 4.5 Beta 2
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-*The following issues have been addressed:*
-
-- Triage all issues reported in Coverity scans and fix actual bugs detected
-- Fix a possible crash in the Uemis downloader
-- Print less debug information to the console (unless in verbose mode)
-- Small adjustments to the VPM-B parameters
-- Fix a UI bug by reimplementing the input widget for dive locations
-- Fix BT issues
-- Fix cloud storage issues on some versions of Windows
-- Fix SAC rate calculation for dive computers reporting samples after the
- diver reached the surface
-- Improve the handling of GPS data imported from the Subsurface webservice
-- Don't zoom out the globe to "sky view" when a dive site has no GPS data
-- Various other small fixes
-
-*The following feature has been added:*
-
-- A new action was added to the dive list context menu that allows the
- user to split a dive into multiple dives at a surface interval. If the
- dive computer reports "free dive" mode the split(s) happen at every
- surface interval of at least 10 seconds, otherwise the threshold is 60
- seconds.

-
-*The following issues have been addressed:*
-
-- crash when uploading dive data to divelogs.de
-- printing now works with the Mac bundle
-- stability improvements for BT support
-- fix for several bugs in the Uemis import
-- the "spinner" UI effect to show activity when syncing with cloud storage
- was replaced by a more conventional progress dialog that appears to work
- much more reliably
-- the Mac bundle should finally validate on newer Macs with Gatekeeper
- enabled
-- Facebook sharing has been moved to a menu entry and no longer shows up
- as an icon next to the notes field
-- small adjustments to the VPM-B implementation to bring it even closer to
- the reference implementation
-- many updates to the user manual and the UI translations
-- various other small bug fixes in response to bug reports
-
-*Known issues*
-
-- Windows 10 appears to have a bug in the Bluetooth SPP communication so
- using that to communicate with BT dive computers on Windows 10 may not
- work until Microsoft releases a fix. Native BT should work.
