I'm pleased to announce the release of Today version 3.20. The application
lists events that have taken place (or will take place) on a given date. It
contains a database of historical information, to which additional dates and
personal anniversaries can be added.

Originally written by James Miskin, I produced a 32-bit update in 2006.
Almost 20 years later, following a question at RISC OS North back in March,
I went on a hunt for the source code, dusted it off, and have produced a new
version with the following changes:

* The application has been built with a toolchain known to be ARMv7
  compatible.
* There is now a Help... entry in the main and iconbar menus.
* The date shown in the scan window is updated when the system clock
  changes day, so long as the window was previously on the current day.
* The upper bound for the day of the month is correctly set when opening
  the event window.
* A minimum window size is applied when setting the extent of the scan
  and search windows, to avoid the search results being hidden.

A copy of version 3.20 can be found on my website, at

  https://www.stevefryatt.org.uk/risc-os/today

It has also been added -- finally -- to the PlingStore, and if I've managed
to find the correct incantations it should also show up in PackMan over the
next few days.

Originally released into the Public Domain by James, I have applied version
1.2 of the EUPL to the new release to make its status clear, and the source
code can finally be found amongst my other projects on GitHub at
