On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased to announce
the release of Rivendell v1.7.0. Rivendell is a full-featured radio
automation system targeted for use in professional broadcast environments. It
is available under the GNU General Public License. Changes in this release
include (from the NEWS file):

Changes:
Log Import Format Presets. Added preset import configurations in
RDAdmin->ManageServices for several third-party scheduler systems.
The following systems are supported:
CounterPoint Software
Music 1
PowerGold
RadioTraffic.com
Rivendell Standard Import
Visual Traffic
New AsPlayed Report Format. An ELR format for Music 1 in has been
added in RDAdmin->ManageReports.
Log Import Scripts. It is now possible to specify an optional script to be
run at log import time before regular import processing takes place. This
can be configured in RDAdmin->ManageServices with the 'Preimport Command'
fields. These fields accept the same wildcard sequences as 'Path' fields.
High-Resolution Timing. This version of Rivendell debuts the ability to
specify the start times and lengths of log events with 1/10 second
precision.
New Translations. Two Norwegian translations (nn_NO and nb_NO) and a
Spanish translation (es) have been added.
Database Update:
This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 186, 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. Due to the
complexity of the schema changes required for this update, the process
may take significantly longer to execute than is commonly the case;
users are cautioned to allow for ample time operationally.
