!!! IMPORTANT: this is not what I would normally call a final release - but Twitter API 1.1 - you know...?
!!! If your Nymphicus crashes directly on start please see the Nymphicus FAQ at http://www.nymphicusapp.com/faq/ to reset all settings
Twitter API 1.1 is now used in all requests
To achieve Twitter API 1.1 compliance the underlying library has changed from Twitterizer (which is now discontinued) to TweetSharp
 o  because of this every single API call to Twitter has been _completely rewritten_ and I didn't have the time to test it as much as I would like
 !! TweetMarker is currently disabled as I need to rewrite that code too :(
 !! Image upload is currently disabled as I need to rewrite that code :(
 !! Streaming is currently disabled as I need to rewrite that code (instead polling is used for now) :(
 o  keep scroll position is also disabled currently
Due to Twitter API 1.1 Display Requirments:
 !! no more mixed Views (Twitter and non-Twitter items) :(
 !! no more send to Pocket, Instapaper and so on :(          
 o  author always full name and username always with @
 o  created date string if more than 24 hours ago (like Feb 7 instead of x days ago)
 o  clicking on the creating date opens it on the Twitter homepage

Messages are only shown if they are private messages (Patter will get added later on)
Copy text to clipboard now works with App.net posts
Fix: replying to an App.net post in conversation view crash

1.4.1
Tweets are now fetched 100 in the past on startup (has been 30 before). This value can be changed in the preferences (but 100 is the maximum). Maybe the old default 30 is still saved for your installation so have a look at the preferences.
Note: Fething more items will of course increase the ressources Nymphicus is using
Tweet Marker is now also saved every time when the main window loses focus (if another window - even another Nymphicus one - is opened. This is for example also true if you click a link in a tweet)
Tweet Marker can now be turned off (it's activated by default

 - comment on an item you also commented on or liked

 - new likes on an item you neither commented on or liked
 - new likes on an item you neither commented on or liked
So you can disable notifications in Snarl you don't want to receive in more detail
In Facebook all comments are now fetched upon status retrieval
As all accounts can now be streaming (see below) the Twitter API rate limits are less important and the update intervall is now 90 seconds (has been four minutes before)

When opening new tweet window the textbox is selected and cursor waits for you start typing (...again, lost this when added auto complete)

  Currently: t.co, bit.ly, is.gd, and tinyurl

Conversation view: see the full conversation on replies and direct messages by pressing the small message type icon
Speed and performance optimizations
Snarl notifications on inital fetch now reliable not being displayed (no more screen flooding)
