Hash: SHA1

The "scaffolding" release.

This version mostly contains infrastructure to support APIs that are coming
soon, but haven't got through the review process yet.

Tarball:
http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/releases/telepathy-glib/telepathy-glib-0.7.9.tar.gz
Signature:
http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/releases/telepathy-glib/telepathy-glib-0.7.9.tar.gz.asc
Development branch in Darcs:
http://darcs.collabora.co.uk/darcs/telepathy/telepathy-glib

Enhancements:

* Update to telepathy-spec 0.17.5
  - RoomList gained a read-only Server property
  - Text gained TP_CHANNEL_TEXT_MESSAGE_FLAG_NON_TEXT_CONTENT,
    TP_CHANNEL_TEXT_MESSAGE_TYPE_DELIVERY_REPORT to support the future
    Messages and DeliveryReporting interfaces

* Update to telepathy-spec 0.17.6
  - Group properties (but the group mixin does not yet implement them)
  - Group HandleOwnersChanged, SelfHandleChanged
  - TP_HASH_TYPE_CHANNEL_OWNER_MAP

* New functions tp_asv_get_uint32() etc. to make it easier to use a{sv}
  hash tables (implemented in dbus-glib as a GHashTable of gchar * => GValue *)

* Enhance TpDBusPropertiesMixin so that mixins can provide properties more
  easily

* Start porting the remaining XSLT to Python for better maintainability

Fixes:

* TpProxy: Avoid a misleading debug message every time a pending call
  completes, and probably fix detection of crashing services

* tp_dbus_check_valid_interface_name: correctly detect that a name with a
  dot followed by a digit is invalid

* Add a Valgrind suppression for SELinux-related ld.so initialization (not our
  problem)

Release notes for projects using code-generation:

* When you update tools copied from telepathy-glib, be aware that
  libglibcodegen.py now depends on libtpcodegen.py, and that some of the
  formerly-XSLT tools have been replaced by Python versions

Regards,
    Simon
