==========================
0.19.1 - November 30, 2023
==========================
- Support multiple web views, using the new CogView and CogViewport APIs.
Each viewport may display one from a set of web views, and using many
viewports is supported as well. Typically platform plug-ins map a
viewport to some kind of "window" that can be displayed on screen.
Most of the changes in this release are related to this new feature.
- launcher: Add command line flag to disable the built-in key bindings.
- launcher: Add command line flag to control media auto-play behaviour.
- launcher: Handle GApplication activation to avoid a warning.
- core: Move most of the key binding handling from the Wayland platform
into CogView, making it common code for all platforms.
- core: Moved platform plug-in selection logic into the library, along
with an always-built "fallback" implementation, which simplifies API
usage.
- core: Avoid leaking web views due to CogShell holding one reference
too much on them.
- core: The library now takes advantage of symbol visibility, and only
the public symbols marked with the COG_API macro will be available for
linking from the shared library.
- core: Avoid loading the same platform plug-in more than once.
- core: Automatically scan the default module path without needing
programs to call cog_modules_add_directory() by themselves.
- core: Remove the cog_platform_configure() function, in favor of
an new cog_init() function which is optional to call, and reorganized
setup code to make API usage simpler.
- meson: Fix configuration error when only the Wayland platform plug-in
is selected.
- drm: Fix touch region dimensions when the output is rotated by 90
or 270 degrees.
- drm: Fix crash on iMX.6 (and possibly others) by improving how the
CRTC and encoder combination is chosen.
- x11: Add support for using the xcb-keysyms library for handling key
input events when the XKB extension is unavailable, either because
its usage was disabled at build time, or the extension is missing at
runtime.
- wl: Add support for Weston protocols version 13.
- wl: Fix blurry rendering in some compositors.
- wl: Add a check for memfd_create() to avoid the need to have write
permission in XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, which is the case in some systems.
- wl: Set the opaque region also for non-fullscreen surfaces, resulting
in a small performance improvement in some cases.
- wl: Add support for multiple seats.
- wl: Remove limit of 16 maximum outputs.
- gtk4, x11, wl: Add support for file choosers using the XDG Desktop
Portal through libportal.
- gtk4, x11, wl: Add support for changing mouse cursors when hovering
links (hand) and text (I-beam).
=======================

==========================
0.15.1 - September 2, 2022
==========================
- launcher: Add new "--proxy" and "--ignore-host" command line options, which
allow setting up a network proxy and a list of hosts that would bypass it.
- drm, gtk4, wl, x11: Add support for gamepads using libmanette.
- build: Switch the build system from CMake to Meson.
=======================
0.13.90 - June 29, 2022
=======================
- cmake: Enable libsoup3 usage by default, USE_SOUP2=ON can still be specified
to build against libsoup2.
- cmake: Require version 3.12, which is the same minimum as needed by WebKit.
- cmake: Link the same wpebackend-fdo library in all components to avoid
crashes due to multiple copies loaded with different behaviours.
- cmake: Fix generated .pc file when using an absolute directory for the
CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR option instead of a relative one.
- core: Add "Try again" button to default error pages.
- gtk4: Fix rendering with drivers that support OpenGL 4.
- wl: Avoid crashing due to missing callbacks by explicitly binding to
supported versions of Wayland protocols.
- wl: Fix the build with COG_WESTON_DIRECT_DISPLAY enabled.
- wl: Fix fullscreen surface dimensions when using SHM buffers.
- wl: Add keybindings to refresh the current page (Ctrl-R, F5).
- x11: Fix underlinking when the --as-needed linker flag is in use.
- x11: Fix rendering in non-composited (traditional) window managers.
- drm, gtk4, x11: Factor out and reuse the GLES textured quad painting code.
- drm, wl, x11: Add refresh rate reporting to let WebKit pace rendering to
match the output device.
=========================
0.13.3 - January 12, 2022
=========================
- core: Fix platform plug-ins not being found due to COG_MODULEDIR being
incorrectly defined as a relative path at build configuration time.
- gtk4: Fix handling of mouse events when the device scale factor changes.
- gtk4: Improve compatibility with more graphics drivers by marking shaders
as compatible with all GLSL versions.
=========================
0.13.2 - December 9, 2021
=========================
- launcher: Add new "--platform-params"/"-O" command line option, which
allows passing parameters to platforms plug-ins during initialization.
- drm: Add support for output rotation by means of a new OpenGL ES based
renderer, which can be enabled with "cog -O renderer=gles,rotation=1".
- drm: Rotate input device coordinates as needed to match output rotation.
==========================
0.13.1 - November 26, 2021
==========================
- launcher: Support setting memory limits using command line options.
- core: Remove CogLauncher from the library, as it is in practice an
implementation detail of the cog launcher.
- cmake: Fix calculation of default installation path for platform plug-ins.
=========================
0.11.1 - November 3, 2021
=========================
- core: Changed platform plug-ins to be able to automatically detect which
one should be used. Passing the "--platform=" command line option to the
launcher is now optional.
- core: Added support for building against libsoup3.
- core: Added CogHostRoutesHandler, which can route URI scheme requests
with different host parts to other handlers.
- core, cog: Added support for running in WebDriver automation mode.
- cog: New "--enable-sandbox" command line option, which allows isolating
rendering processes from the rest of the system.
- cog: New "--content-filter=" command line option, which allows loading
a content blocker (WebKitUserContentFilter) JSON rule set.
- drm: Implemented handling of pointer axis/wheel/finger/continuous events
and absolute motion events.
- wl: Renamed "fdo" platform module to "wl" (Wayland) as it better reflects
its usage; the old name still works e.g. when using "cog --platform=fdo"
but it is considered deprecated and will cause a warning.
- wl, gtk4: Added support for fullscreening web views.
- gtk4: Honor the CogShell.device-scale-factor property.
======================
0.9.1 - March 16, 2021
======================

with different path prefixes to other handlers.
- core: Added new CogShell.device-scale-factor property.
- core: Added support in CogDirectoryFilesHandler to use the URI host part
as a path component, to ignore a certain amount of path components, and
expose the base path as a property.
- core: Removed support for building using WebKitGTK, only the WPE port is
supported now.
- drm: The DRM/KMS platform module is now built by default.
- drm: Added support for key press event repeat.
- drm: Added support for mouse cursor.
- drm: Added support for atomic modesetting, which is automatically used

using Mesa's software rasterization.
- fdo: Try using the largest available output video mode when using the
zwp_fullscreen_shell_v1 protocol.
- headless: Added new "headless" platform module, which does not produce
output and can be used without any graphics hardware e.g. in combination
with Mesa's software rasterization.
- x11: Added new "x11" platform module, which uses an X11 window to paint
rendered web content using XCB and OpenGL.
