 The biggest changes in this version are two major rewrites in the hope to improve maintainability and code quality.

+Rofi now no longer uses 0.year.month as release number, but switches to a more common scheme:

+In our continious effort of making **rofi** handle UTF-8 and locales correctly we made the run dialog convert to and

 ## "Regression"
 
 There where also some victims of the big rewrite, we decided to remove an old remnants from the simpleswitcher era,
 namely daemon mode. In our opinion this is duplicate functionality, if you are using **rofi** it is very likely you are
 either running a window manager (like i3) that implements global hotkey functionality, or running a keyboard daemon like

 A second victim, that had been marked deprecated for more then a year, is the old method of specifying themes where
 every color option had one commandline flag. This method was very verbose and incomplete. With the [theme
