1.0.0

Released on February 23, 2014.

Version 1.0 is a complete rewrite of the existing implementation to allow sufficient test integration which made it necessary to split the original file into different classes (force encapsulation), eliminate GLOBALS (where necessary inject configuration via the constructor), and enable service injection (increase inversion of control).

Exif and ShorUrl handling has been moved into separate classes, property registration has been uncoupled from the functional implementation. Property definitions no longer reside within PHP and have been moved into json file for easier access and configurability.

Due to those internal changes and the introduced test integration, 1.0 requires Semantic MediaWiki 1.9. It is strongly recommended to run update.php together with a SMW_refreshData.php.

For details about the rewrite, its discussion, and changes see #10.
