Eye of GNOME 2.19.1

Hi all,

This is a special release: this is the first release with the
completely rewriten core of Eye of GNOME. Also, some cool features
were added.

As you can see, some of the bugs listed in this announcement were
already fixed in previous releases. This is because we were working on
a separate branch (eog-ng) for this new code and we kept fixing bugs
on both trunk and eog-ng for some time.

There's still a lot of polishing work to do from now on. Testers, go
on and use, debug, profile, play with, and crash EOG as much as you
can. The plugin system and other new features are scheduled for
2.19.2.

Special thanks goes to Claudio Saavedra and Felix Riemann. Without
those guys, this awesome release wouldn't be possible.

* What is it ?
==============

Eye of GNOME (EOG) is the image viewer for the GNOME desktop.

* What's changed in 2.19.1 ?
==========================

New features:

   * Complete rewrite of application core which means more stable,

managing memory and type casting.  When combined with PyGTK, PyORBit and
gnome-python, it can be used to write full featured Gnome applications.

GTK+ 2.10.12 released

GTK+ 2.10.12 is now available for download at:

 ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.10/
 http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gtk+/2.10/

gtk+-2.10.12.tar.bz2   md5sum: cf969c62134c662ff07e64613ed6c11f
gtk+-2.20.12.tar.gz    md5sum: 58787b04190fbf99012460ff79019a46

This is a bug fix release in the 2.10 series.

What is GTK+
============

GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user
interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for
projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application
suites.

GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of
languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and
Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides
an effective method of rapid application development.

GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the
licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all
developers, including those developing proprietary software, without
any license fees or royalties.

GLib 2.13.1 released

GLib 2.13.1 is now available for download at:

   ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/2.13/
   http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glib/2.13/

glib-2.13.1.tar.bz2  md5sum: 9317b839a998d99b53ce6ba2a6cdd8b3
glib-2.13.1.tar.gz   md5sum: 656b7b1d1fda7bed4f5392f446ff76ef

This is the second development release leading up to GLib 2.14.

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 2.12. If you have problems, you'll need
   to reinstall GLib 2.12.

 * GLib 2.14 will be source and binary compatible with
   the GLib 2.12 series; however, the new API additions
   in GLib 2.13.1 are not yet finalized, so there may
   be incompatibilities between this release and the final
   2.14 release.

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