--------------- indicator-datetime (13.10.0+14.10.20140611-0ubuntu1) utopic; urgency=low [ Charles Kerr ] * when src/timezone-file.c reads the contents of a file, skip lines that begin with '#' (LP: #1312775) * Use the Suru Arpeggio as the default alarm sound. (LP: #1309063) * Prefer to use ubuntu-platform-hardware-api for wakeups when possible s.t. user-defined alarms/appointments can wake up the phone from sleep to give a snap decision. (LP: #1299916) [ Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff ] * Add Pantheon, the desktop environment of elementary Project, to OnlyShowIn lists in .desktop files.
