GPSBabel 1.4.0 Released

Via email I learned about the release of the open source GPSBabel version 1.4.0.

From the announcement: "The change that most of you will notice first is that we've completely replaced the graphical user interface. So far in the project, we've had a different GUI for each operating system, each written in a completely different language. Khai Mong contributed a new GUI written in Qt that lets us all rally our efforts behind one code base for all the operating systems. It takes the best features from our previous OS/X and Windows versions and makes them available everywhere. Notably it offers a reasonable set of filters, can map data, knows device names, remembers previous settings, has automatic update checking, and more. It also lays infrastructure for language translations. We have German, Spanish,Russian French, Hungarian, and Italian in progress and are trying to make it easy for non-programmers if you want to help translate GPSBabel. You can see screen shots of some of the existing translations."

Amongst the long list of new features: KML writer now sets the extents of the time sliders automatically for Google Earth 5.0, can now generate gx:Track for Google Earth 5.2.
