[mythtv-users] [0.26] Arclight Update for Mythtv

[Angela]

Hello Paul

Many thanks for replying and spreading the good news.

What's really missing are themes release/change notes for each mythtv
version (and fix-version). Or at the minimum changes which have to be made
in the themes should be explicitly announced on myhtv_dev or mythtv_themes. 
With release notes someone can expect/react on misbehavior. (Re-)Reading
posts is a hassle.

At the moment I don't have time to upgrade. I like to catch up as soon as
0.26-fixes is announced. Haven't seen an info/schedule so far.

Thanks again
Angela
