Let's stay there. It fantastic :) I'll update rawstudio.org to reflect.

I have added an "abandon" labels on a lot of bugs, that label marks that
we're ready to abandon the bug. Before we close bugzilla I will write a
explanation on each bug and encourage people to move to
https://github.com/rawstudio/rawstudio/issues

Removed for now. Maybe we can add a rawstudio-exotic repository since
it's possible to compile plugins out of tree.

Done. Easier than expected.

Done. Also much easier than expected.

Not done yet. I'm not convinced it's needed. But it's pretty broken ATM.

I have fixed everything I could reproduce and fixed CVE-2014-4978.

Debian (which has now removed Rawstudio) moved plugins to /usr/lib
instead of /usr/share. I'll do that later this week.

Maybe we can manage that before 2015..?
