Footnote shouldn't hardcode years

[Andrea Basso]

Right now years are hardcoded, while it should detect the first and last year of notes.

Uhm... could you explain this a bit further? :/

[Andrea Basso (voluntatefaber)]

In the date filter bar you can select the year you want to see notes from.
Looking at the code I saw right now 2011 and 2012 are hardcoded, but Footnote should search the first note created and the last one and use those years. So 2011 shouldn't be showed if I haven't any note from 2011 (and maybe even remove the year selector if there is only one year) and we don't need to add 2013 in a year.

I agree completely.

Although marked as 'Fix committed', how does it come footnote.vala from trunk still contains hardcoded references to 2012:

[...]
public FootnoteApp (){
    month = -1;
    year = 2012;
[...]

These hardcoded years make notes from this year (2013 as I'm writing this) are hidden by default...

Thanks kurt, that's fixed now as well.
