+Version 0.4.0 alpha 1
+---------------------
+
+2011-03-24
+
+Rapid Photo Downloader is much faster and sports a new user interface. It is
+about 50 times faster in tasks like scanning photos and videos before the
+download. It also performs the actual downloads quicker. It will use
+multiple CPU cores if they are available.
+
+Rapid Photo Downloader now requires version 0.3.0 or newer of pyexiv2. It also
+requries Python Imaging (PIL) to run. It will only run on recent Linux
+distributions such as Ubuntu 10.04 or newer. It has been tested on Ubuntu 10.04,
+10.10 and 11.04, as well as Fedora 14. (There is currently an unusual bug
+adjusting some preferences when running Ubuntu 11.04. See bug #739021).
+
+This is an alpha release because it is missing features that are present in
+version 0.3.5. Missing features include:
+
+* System Notifications of download completion
+* Job Codes
+* Backups as you download
+* Automation features, e.g. automatically start download at startup
+* Error log window (currently you must check the command line for error output)
+* Time remaining status messages
+* Synchronize RAW + JPEG Sequence Numbers
+* Add unique identifier to a filename if a file with the same name already
+ exists
+* Sample file names and subfolders are not displayed in the preferences window
+
+These missing features will be added in subsequent alpha and beta releases.
+
+Kaa-metadata is no longer required to download videos. However, if you
+want to use Frames Per Second or Codec metadata information in subfolder or
+video file names, you must ensure it is installed. This is no longer checked at
+program startup.
+
+Thanks go to Robert Park for refreshing the tranlsations code.
