November 2nd, 2012· Remove datepicker binding
· Remove JSON compatibility module
January 16th, 2012· Firefox minimum version support is now 3.5
New date options, see Options, Clock tab, Custom format:
· days until end of year, see Day dropdown box
· week number, ISO (defined as: weeks begin Monday, week containing Jan 4th is the first week of that year) and US (defined as: weeks begin Sunday, week containing Jan 1st is the first week of that year), see Weekday dropdown box
· New Options tab, Style, allows setting of font and colour properties for toolbar display. Many Personas make it difficult to read the toolbar display
· Countdowns can now be set to run consecutively. Previously a set of countdowns would run concurrently, now there is a Mode option in the Countdown dialog. Since consecutive implies order, there are now Move Up and Move Down buttons in the Countdown dialog. Select a timer in the list, and move it to the position you want. Consecutive mode countdowns are run in a top-down order
· The default audio alert, specified in Options, Notifications tab, can now be overridden for individual countdowns/notifications. In the Countdown and Notify Me dialogs, there is a new Alarm button. Select a timer in the list, and click Alarm to display a small panel. Browse your local file system for a .wav file (.ogg is not supported here). There is also a listen icon so you can test play the audio file
Audio handling has been rewritten, see Options, Notifications tab:
· the repeat audio function is no longer dependent on using dialog notification
· the Audio files section of the tab is now always visible, but enabled/disabled when ticking the "Enable audio notifications" checkbox
· built-in "Chimes" audio file added
· format of the built-in audio files has been changed from compressed .wav files to .ogg files. The old files were unplayable on many Linux systems. Unfortunately this added some size to the add-on
· when browsing and selecting a custom audio file (.wav or .ogg), the duration of the file is determined and displayed below the textbox. This information is needed by ST if you choose the repeat audio function. If an error occurs during this determination, ST will assume a duration of 5 seconds
· the "Kill Audio Alarm (.ogg)" context-menu item now also applies to .wav files. When choosing this during an .ogg playback, the audio stops immediately. When choosing this for .wav, the audio plays to conclusion, but if you have chosen the repeat audio function, further iterations of the play are prevented

· Add support for .ogg (Ogg Vorbis) audio file format, for your custom audio alarm (see Options->Notifications) For a short audio alarm (a few seconds duration only) you can use .wav files, for a longer audio alarm, or even a complete song, use an .ogg file. Convert your favorite .mp3 to .ogg and give it a try! Firefox 3.5 or better is required for this feature. Requested feature, to play mp3's or longer alarms.
