This is the a development release leading up to GLib 2.24.

Notes:

 * This is unstable development release. While it has had
  a bit of testing, there are certainly plenty of bugs
  remaining to be found. This release should not be used
  in production.

 * Installing this version will overwrite your existing
  copy of GLib 2.22. If you have problems, you'll need
  to reinstall GLib 2.22.

 * GLib 2.24 will be source and binary compatible with
  the GLib 2.22 series; however, the new API additions
  in GLib 2.23 are not yet finalized, so there may be
  incompatibilities between this release and the final
  2.24 release.

 * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.

About GLib
==========

GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projects
such as GTK+ and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C,
portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality as
an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system.

More information about GLib is available at:

 http://www.gtk.org/

An installation guide for the GTK+ libraries, including GLib, can
be found at:

 http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-building.html

Overview of Changes from GLib 2.23.2 to GLib 2.23.3
===================================================

* GLib now has a facility for locks that consume only one bit of
  storage inside an integer: g_bit_lock()

* GVariant: The serializer has been merged, with more API to follow

* Bugs fixed
 548967 1 bit mutex lock
 604967 2.22.3 libasyncns build fails on HP-UX 11.11
 608602 G_VALUE_COLLECT_INIT variables shadow those in G_VALUE_COLLECT

Announce: mousetweaks 2.29.90

Dear reader,

Mousetweaks version 2.29.90 has been released and can be downloaded from:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/mousetweaks/2.29/

sha256sum of mousetweaks-2.29.90.tar.bz2:

=======================
What is mousetweaks ?
=======================

The mousetweaks package provides the functions offered by the
Accessibility tab of the Mouse control panel. It also contains
two panel applets related to the mouse accessibility. More
particularly:

 1. It offers a way to perform the various clicks without using any
    hardware button. In this context, the Dwell Click panel applet
    can be used to choose what click type to perform.

 2. It allows users to perform a secondary click by doing a
    click&hold of the primary mouse button.

 3. It provides the Pointer Capture panel applet. This applet creates
    an area on the panel into which the pointer can be captured until
    the user releases it with a predefined button and modifier
    combination.

What is new ?

Announce: AT-SPI2 0.1.6 released.

AT-SPI2 0.1.6 is now available for download at:

http://download.gnome.org/sources/pyatspi/0.1/
http://download.gnome.org/sources/at-spi2-core/0.1/
http://download.gnome.org/sources/at-spi2-atk/0.1/

Notes
=====

A list of work required before the a full release can be found at:

http://live.gnome.org/Accessibility/BonoboDeprecation

This release is intended to be installed on a system where the CORBA
version of at-spi is already present. Gtk and python modules will be
re-located to non-standard directories on install so as not to conflict
with the AT-SPI CORBA modules. To disable this re-location configure
with the '--disable-relocate' option.

What's changed in AT-SPI2 0.1.6
===============================

Pyatspi:
          * Fix orca performance issues & properly update the cache.

          * Enable re-entrancy.

          * Make AT-SPI Corba the default install and allow for
            re-location of the pyatspi library.

Core:
          * Temporarily disable install of the accessibility bus.

          * Make the registry implement the accessible interface and
            add a socket interface for adding children to its 
            accessible object.

Atk:
          * Plug/socket fixes, and remove conditional
            Always enable plug/socket code.  Bump atk requirement 
            to 1.29.3 accordingly.
            Fix cases where we were omitting the parent of a plug 
            if it was unknown.

          * The StreamableContent interface is not currently supported.
            Stop indicating that it is in the list of interfaces.

          * Modify the paths scheme.
            The null path now signifies no object. A new root path
            has been added representing the root accessible for a
            given connection.

          * Change the keystroke delivery method re-entrancy from
            looping over the bus to entering a g_main_loop.

          * Increase the lease time to rectify errors seen during orca  
            testing.

          * Make AT-SPI Corba the default install. Relocate AT-SPI2 by
            default.

What is AT-SPI2
===============

AT-SPI2 is a D-Bus based accessibility framework. It defines a D-Bus
protocol for providing and accessing application accessibility
information. The project includes a library for bridging the D-Bus
protocol to the ATK API, allowing Gtk based applications to be made
accessible. It also contains a client (AT) side library in Python.

Where can I get more information about AT-SPI2
==============================================

The project wiki is available at:

http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/Accessibility/ATK/AT-SPI/AT-SPI_on_D-Bus

A page detailing the project plan can be found at:

http://live.gnome.org/Accessibility/BonoboDeprecation

How can I contribute to AT-SPI2?
================================

We are actively seeking contributors to help us make this the standard
a11y framework for Gnome. We need help testing with Gnome accessibility
technologies, and are especially looking for someone to create client
bindings in 'C' that meet the cspi API.

ANNOUNCE: Glom 1.13.3

*** Glom

With Glom you can design table definitions and the relationships between 
them, plus arrange the fields on the screen. You can edit and search the 
data in those tables, and specify field values in terms of other fields. 
It's as easy as it should be.

More information and screenshots are at
http://www.glom.org

Glom 1.13 will become stable Glom 1.14, around the time that GNOME 2.30 
is released. It adds some minor features.

Changes since glom 1.12.x:

1.13.3 (unstable):

* Relationships Overview: Avoid a crash and a warning when closing.
  (Murray Cumming) Bug #607938 (Michael Hasselmann)
* Import: Avoid a hang, hopefully.
  (Michael Hasselmann)
* Import: Fixed out-ouf-bounds crash.
  (Michael Hasselmann)  Bug #607938 (ialx).
* New file: Allow the title to contain quotes, avoiding weird errors.
  (Murray Cumming) Bug #607957 (Michael Hasselmann)
* libglom:
  - Improved include paths used in headers.
  (Murray Cumming)
  - Avoid crashes with invalid parameter values.
  (Michael Hasselmann)
* Use Gtk::ToolPalette, requiring gtkmm 2.19.4, instead of code copied from libegg.
* Command-line arguments: Do some checks.
  (Murray Cumming)

1.13.2 (unstable):

* Details layout: Really use the new formatting options (horizontal alignment, 
  foreground color and background color) for static text items and buttons.
  (Murray Cumming)

1.13.1 (unstable):

* Details and List layouts:
  Allow custom formatting of static text and buttons instead of just fields.
  (Murray Cumming) 
* Field Formatting:
  - Add the option to use a different text color for negative values.
    (suggested by Mathias Hasselmann)
  - Add a horizontal alignment option, though we still right-align numbers 
    by default. #591125 (Patrick Chan)
  (Murray Cumming)
