These are the major user-visible changes in 0.9:
* Support for KataGo analysis. The evaluation graph can be switched between
score and win rate.
* A new option to start a game against an engine game from the current
board position.
* A new AI vs AI play mode. The number of games to be played is
configurable, and an opening book can be used.
* It is now possible to hide/show the analysis markup of the board rather
than having it displayed at all times.
* The variant game dialog now supports removing intersections from the board,
allowing new variations of the game.
* Several bug fixes related to scoring mode when playing games on IGS.
* There are now a few presets for the stone visual appearance to make it
quicker and easier to arrive at a nice look. The darkness of the shadows
can now also be configured.
* Sounds should be a little more reliable, the samples used for stones were
too short to be played on some systems.
These are the major user-visible changes in 1.0:
* A greeter dialog was added, similar to the ones used by cgoban or
gGo.
* There is now a "Learn Go" button that brings up beginner tutorials
in a slideshow view.
* Engine configuration in the preferences is a little more friendly.
* Edit mode works differently. Depending on the situation, an edited
position can be appended to or inserted before the current node, or
replace a previous edit.
* The board window now has menu items for undo/redo.
* When playing on IGS, the comments box now allows chatting even after
a match has completed, making it unnecessary to find the opponent's
talk tab.
* Corrected a bug when parsing nmatch preferences on IGS.
