- Update to TMDA 1.0 "Cannonade"
From Jason's announcement:
"After almost three years of hacking on TMDA, I'm proud to announce the
release of version 1.0-final. I figured that after this length of
time, the version number should be bumped to a positive value to
better reflect its current stability."
- Reword pkg-descr
