Adding to this:

  * the copyright year in the map and the index is now correct and
    dynamically computed at the map generation time (instead of the
    hard-coded 2009)
  * a warning banner is now displayed under the menu when the rendering
    daemon is not running (example: http://appart.bulix.org:8081). It
    uses the PID file, so if the daemon crashes it may think that
    everything's ok. But at least it's a start.
  * updated translations in Portuguese and Polish

Looking back, this was a very interesting and motivating development
cycle. I'm looking forward to tackling some of the features/bugs in our
task list!

- Maxime
