![screenshot](screens/screenshot.png)

These are the major user-visible changes in 1.0:
* A greeter dialog was added, similar to the ones used by cgoban or
gGo.
* There is now a "Learn Go" button that brings up beginner tutorials
in a slideshow view.
* Engine configuration in the preferences is a little more friendly.
* Edit mode works differently. Depending on the situation, an edited
position can be appended to or inserted before the current node, or
replace a previous edit.
* The board window now has menu items for undo/redo.
* When playing on IGS, the comments box now allows chatting even after
a match has completed, making it unnecessary to find the opponent's
talk tab.
* Corrected a bug when parsing nmatch preferences on IGS.
These are the major user-visible changes in 1.1:
* Performance improvements when loading and editing very large SGF files.
* q5go can now detect when an observed game on IGS is adjourned and restarted
and follow it in the same window. This requires the server to be set to
non-quiet mode.
* When playing an engine, there is now a "Play again" button.
* In an online match with Canadian time, time warnings can now be enabled
for remaining average time, not just remaining total time.
* In an online match, remaining seconds in low time situations can now be
shown on the opponent's last placed stone.
* Added a "Go terminology" SGF to the tutorials.
* The greeter window now has a hint to choose "Play online" for a full set
of menus.
* The program is more helpful when detecting a broken SGF written by Jago.
* Added more helpful error messages when editing servers in the preferences.
* Score evaluations are now shown in the board window when analysis is on.
* Added a feature to visualize connected stones by drawing thick lines
between them. May be helpful for beginners.
* GTP support was extended to support board sizes > 25, for KataGo.
