[Fred Gleason]

On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce the availability of Rivendell v2.8.0.  Rivendell is a full-featured radio automation system targeted for use in professional broadcast environments. It is available under the GNU General Public License.

From the NEWS file:

Changes:
   Drag and Drop Configurability.  It is now possible to enable/disable
   drag and drop capability on a per-host basis as well as configure cart drops
   to honor the Setup mode on Sound Panels.  See RDAdmin->ManageHosts to
   configure.

   Metadata Fields.  Added 'Album' and 'Label' to the fields
   displayed in Cart List in RDLibrary and the Full Log widget in
   RDAirPlay.

   Independent Log Modes.  It is now possible to configure RDAirPlay so
   that log modes (LiveAssist vs. Automatic vs. Manual) can be set
   independently for each log machine.  See RDAdmin->ManageHosts->RDAirPlay
   to configure.

   Cue Channel Assignments.  Channel assignments for cue output from all
   modules (include that for RDAirPlay) is now configured in
   'RDAdmin->ManageHosts.

   Various bug fixes.  See the ChangeLog for details.

Database Update:
   This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 234, and will
   automatically upgrade any earlier versions.  To see the current schema
   version prior to upgrade, see RDAdmin->SystemInfo.

   As always, be sure to run RDAdmin immediately after upgrading to allow 
   any necessary changes to the database schema to be applied.
