Release notes 

I'm happy to announce [Nuvola Player 2.5.0][1], the first release of the 2.5 series. The change log
is not outstanding as I've been working mostly on [Nuvola Player 3][2], the next generation of Nuvola Player,
but there are still some new features as well as bug fixes.

*This release has happened thanks to patrons who support the Nuvola Player project on [Gratipay][3].*

    is caused by [a bug in WebKitGtk][6].
    (Closes: LP:1320663)

  * Fixed thumbs up/down actions in Jango.

  * Fixed MPRIS memory leak and optimized metadata property. Then fixed a bug introduced
