ANNOUNCE: gstreamermm 0.9.9

gstreamermm provides C++ bindings for the GStreamer streaming multimedia
library (http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org).  With gstreamermm it is 
possible to
develop applications that work with multimedia in C++.

gstreamermm is developed over glibmm, libsigc++ and libxml++ and the
functionalities they provide.  This means that, among other things, 
referencing
and unreferencing of GObjects is handled automatically via glibmm's 
automatic
pointer class, Glib:RefPtr<>, and libsigc++'s slots are used for 
callbacks and
signals.

There are several examples, including a media player, in the examples/
directory, that demonstrate how to use the API and there are API docs in the
docs/reference/html directory.  The core plug-ins, such as Gst::Identity and
Gst::FileSrc are also provide along with many of the base plug-ins.

gstreamermm requires glibmm >= 2.16.0, giomm >= 2.16.0, and libxml++ >= 
2.14.0
along with the libraries that these require.  For the examples, gtkmm >= 
2.12
is also required.

Changes:

0.9.9 (unstable):

* Merged gstreamerbase branch into the gstreamer branch (everything that

ANNOUNCE: Tomboy 0.13.4 Released (development release)

Hey Everyone,

This email is to announce Tomboy 0.13.4, the fourth official
development release in the 0.13.x series.  UI Freeze is now in effect, 
and String Freeze starts in two weeks.

Please note that as of this release, we are no longer bundling 
Mono.Addins.  Mono.Addins >= 0.3 is now a hard dependency.  Also, we 
have rewritten printing to use GtkPrint instead of libgnomeprint.  It 
has some known bugs with messed-up margins which should be fixed by the 
next release (patches welcome).

Tomboy is a simple personal note-taking application designed to be
unobtrusive and friendly, while supporting inter-note-links similar to
a WikiWikiWeb to help you organize your notes and ideas.  It can run
either as a GNOME panel applet or a notification tray icon.
