Release 20060408:
=================
This is the first release of xjobs. Consider it beta quality. It has
seen some testing, as I have used it myself to encode some of my CDs as
MP3s for my car stereo ;-). But there are most certainly still some bugs
lingering around.
I would be grateful concerning getting feedback. If you like xjobs,
dislike it because of a specific reason, want to report a bug or have a
request for enhancement, feel free to contact me.
