#XBian 1.0 Alpha 5 Changelog

From the development point of view XBian 1.0 Alpha 5 took the most man hours (we're awaiting feminine team members). We've completely rewritten xbian-config and created a custom implementation for an animated splash. We also welcomed a new team member specialized in python under the name of belese (and sadly had to say goodbye to Hexagon). Belese worked hard on a xbian-config port inside XBMC. XBian can now be fully customized inside XBMC*. Last but not least, we've finally included XBMC v12 final.

*Currently only supported under the Confluence skin.
