 • TpTextMixin is (officially) deprecated, use TpMessageMixin.

+
+• TP_ERRORS has officially been deprecated since 0.11; it now produces
+  deprecation warnings too.

 Enhancements:
 
+• <telepathy-glib/telepathy-glib.h> now includes all non-generated code
+  except proxy-subclass.h. Please use it instead of individual headers -
+  direct inclusion of most individual headers will become an error in
+  future versions, as was done for GLib. (Simon)
+
+• A new meta-header, <telepathy-glib/telepathy-glib-dbus.h>, now includes
+  all generated code. Please include it in any file that uses tp_svc_*,
+  tp_cli_*, TP_IFACE_*, TP_HASH_TYPE_*, TP_STRUCT_TYPE_* or TP_ARRAY_TYPE_*.
+  In telepathy-glib 1.0, it will become a separate pkg-config module.
