[Telepathy] ANNOUNCE: telepathy-spec 0.17.15

[Simon McVittie]

I've uploaded telepathy-spec 0.17.15, the "new shipment of groove" release.

The current development version of telepathy-spec is available as HTML:
  <http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/spec.html>
or from the 'master' branch in the git repository:
  <git://git.collabora.co.uk/git/telepathy-spec.git>
  <git+ssh://git.collabora.co.uk/git/telepathy-spec.git> (for committers)
  <http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=telepathy-spec.git> (gitweb)

For packagers (e.g. http://packages.debian.org/telepathy-spec):
tar: http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/releases/telepathy-spec/telepathy-spec-0.17.15.tar.gz
sig: http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/releases/telepathy-spec/telepathy-spec-0.17.15.tar.gz.asc

API changes:

* Account.Nickname is now of type 's', rather than the meaningless 'as'.
  This matches what was actually implemented in Mission Control 5.

API additions:

* Introduce the Avatar type (a struct containing a byte array and a MIME type)
  and use it on the Account.Interface.Avatar.Avatar property

Changes to experimental API:

* Add the sending flags that were in effect to the MessageSent signal, so
  Observers can tell whether a delivery report was requested

* Incoming Messages SHOULD always have a message-received timestamp

Additions to experimental API:

* Messages: add delivery-dbus-error, delivery-dbus-error-message

* Add the Account property to ChannelRequest objects (passed straight through
  from CreateChannel and EnsureChannel)

* Add Channel.Type.FileTransfer, a channel used to send a single file to a
  contact

* Add Channel.Type.StreamTube and Channel.Type.DBusTube, the new "one
  channel per tube" version of Tubes

* Add a use-case description for a channel closing while undispatched

Fixes:

* Many enhancements to cross-references and other minor corrections

Regards,
    Simon
