Introduction

Some introductory words what the activity is like. Any special things you like to mention that happened during the release cycle etc

More Info: link to get some further info about the activity

What is new for users

The read activity now has support for Epub files. For downloading Epub content, http://www.feedbooks.com and http://www.epubbooks.com/ are recommended place to start looking. Furthermore this release will let you associate (add and edit) notes with your bookmarks, and has a slightly more useful fullscreen view (you can now get a rough idea of how much battery is left in your laptop/netbook without invoking the frame).

 
Read displaying an Epub book, a bookmark with text notes is also being displaying for the page.

What is new for developers

What might be interesting to know for a developer contributing to the component. Add 'No News' if there is nothing of interest.

Internationalization (i18n) and Localization (l10n)

Compatibility

Note here if compatibility to an older version of the activity or an older Sucrose version (e.g. 0.84) broke
