Hi,

This release contains some critical bug fixes, all users are strongly
advised to upgrade. Distributors should review and either upgrade or
cherry pick the fixes.
This is the first release supported on OpenBSD, the porting effort was
very valuable for finding latent bugs.

As usual, the source can be found here:
http://xpra.org/src/
And the binaries here:
http://winswitch.org/downloads/
There has not been a winswitch release for a while, this will come next.

Release details:
* security: restrict access to run-xpra script (chmod) CVE-2012-0750
* security: cursor data sent to the client was too big (exposing
server memory) - no CVE
* fix thread leak - properly this time, SIGUSR1 now dumps all threads
* off-by-one keyboard mapping error could cause modifiers to be lost
* pure python/cython method for finding modifier mappings (faster and
more reliable)
* retry socket read/write after temporary error EINTR
* avoid warnings when asked to refresh windows which are now hidden
* auto-refresh was using an incorrect window size
* logging formatting fixes (only shown with logging on)
* hide picture encoding menu when mmap in use (since it is then ignored)

Many thanks to those who tested trunk during this release cycle.

Cheers
Antoine
