        - Release date: 7/4/2009

   Version 0.1.5

        - Release date: 4/21/2009

        - Changes:
                * the Plugin.get_context_menu(graph) now takes a Graph object

Dependencies:
        - svn://danse.us/common/releases/plottools-0.1.6 
        - svn://danse.us/sans/releases/guicomm-0.1.2
        
To-do list:
        - Clean up about box
        - Clean up the _find_plugins() function to allow user-defined directory
        - Modify the get_context_menu() function to allow a plug-in to recognize
                its own plots.
        - Provide a hook for a general file loader for the various data formats
        - Add group flag to allow groups of plots (and exclude other plots with
                same units to be plotted in the same Graph. [DONE]
        - If there is only one perspective, drop the perspective menu.
        - If there is only one panel in the Panel menu, drop the menu.
        - Make legend transparent
        - Make sure that when a plottable is sent a second time for update, that we replace the lables too!
        - Add help menu entry for each module   
        - Put debug info in log file, because we can't access it from a py2exe executable
        - Allow the application to load perspectives by hand. Then the automatic loading is only
          for additionally installed plug-ins.
        - Fix the damned images directory folder...
        - Allow user to remove a plottable from a graph (from code!)
        - Allow perspectives to recognize their own plots and add context menu items.
        - Catch error when trying to show log of negative or zero plots... update status bar.
