Release 0.4.0, released on 2010-04-19
-------------------------------------

* New modules:
** mod_pubsub
   Enables resource sharing over XMPP's PubSub; share content between
   sites and get realtime updates when content changes. See:
   http://scherpenisse.net/id/644

** mod_search_solr
   Added a module which plugs into Zotonic's search system to support
   Solr (http://lucene.apache.org/solr/). Using Solr enables quick
   fulltext searching and facetting.

* New features:
** Default site improvements
   The default site of a vanilla Zotonic install has been improved
   with nicer graphics, cleaner typography, a "contact form"
   example and styles for the Twitter module.

** "More results" scomp
   A twitter/facebook style ajaxified "read more" pager, which is a
   button which will fetch more results for the current search
   question inline on the same page.

** Windows support
   Initial support for building and running Zotonic on the Windows platform.

** Database schema support
   Multiple sites running inside one Postgres database is now possible
   thanks to Postgres' support for multiple table namespaces (schema's)
