Changelog

[JosephWebber]

Can someone please give me a link to the KOReader changelog so that I can see exactly what has changed in each release and decide whether it is worth upgrading?
When I navigate to the wiki and then to Changelog the last one it shows is 20150315.
Presumably there is a list somewhere of every release of KOReader and the fixes and new features each one contains.
Many thanks.

PS I know what deprecate means, but I do not understand what you mean by it. Can you explain?

Yes, of course: https://github.com/koreader/koreader/releases

This is github version, which isn't extremely clear, but you can see what changes were done and how many of them, with all discussions. Some of them aren't very clear to us who don't participate in coding (or at least to me).

Anyway, if you're familiar with github, you'll found your way there.

Also; You should note where it says "##commits to master since this release" poking/clicking on the bold part will give you a page with the code spelled out. So if you click/poke the commits for the previous release you should have the code changed in the current release.

Luck;

Deprecated means as much as that the page is obsolete, no longer updated, and might be removed without warning in the future.
