This is the first release on the 0.7 development branch. The main change
is the addition of Tubes - we've finally managed to get the various
OLPC-specific branches reviewed and merged. We aim to get this release
into Update.1 of the OLPC system software.

Tarball: http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/releases/telepathy-gabble/telepathy-gabble-0.7.0.tar.gz
Signature: http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/releases/telepathy-gabble/telepathy-gabble-0.7.0.tar.gz.asc
Darcs repository: http://projects.collabora.co.uk/darcs/telepathy/telepathy-gabble
Darcs tag: "telepathy-gabble 0.7.0"

Highlights:

* All the same bug fixes as today's stable branch release, 0.6.1

* Tubes, a generic transport for collaborative applications:
  * multi-user D-Bus tubes, where the collaboration is in a MUC (chat room)
    which behaves a lot like the D-Bus daemon
  * one-to-one D-Bus tubes, which behave a lot like peer-to-peer D-Bus
    connections
  * multi-user stream tubes, where one user in a MUC exports a Unix,
    IPv4 or IPv6 server socket and other users can connect to it
  * one-to-one stream tubes, just like multi-user but without the MUC

* Support for the OLPC Activity and Buddy abstractions

* A man page and some protocol documentation

* The connection manager binary now installs to $libexecdir -
  distributors take note!

D-Bus tubes require libdbus-1 version 1.0.2 or better; if you compile
against an older version of libdbus you won't get D-Bus tubes support.

Full Darcs changes would be too long for this e-mail, but are available
from http://projects.collabora.co.uk/~smcv/telepathy-gabble-0.6.0-0.7.0.txt

Regards,
    Simon
