 HISTORY
 
-... unreleased yet ...
+
+0.1.1 (28-03-2011)
+
+  Improvements:
+
+  - Separate WPI archive (still hosted within the Qt4 SVN).
+
+  - Added a 2px horizontal padding when no icons are shown, to make it possible
+    to move the widget and call its context menu with the mouse.
+
+  - Added a tooltip "Indicator area" shown when the mouse is over the padding
+    zone between and around icons (also when no icons are shown, in which case
+    "(empty)" is added to the tooltip string).
+
+  Fixes:
+
+  - xsystray version was wrongly reported as 1.0.0 instead of 0.1.0.
