I've just tagged telepathy-spec 0.17.4. The main change is that the Hold
interface has been finalized (it matches the one implemented as an
extension in telepathy-gabble 0.7.3+).

The latest release is, as always, available from:
http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/spec.html
http://darcs.collabora.co.uk/darcs/telepathy/telepathy-spec/

For the benefit of packagers (e.g. http://packages.debian.org/telepathy-spec):
tar: http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/releases/telepathy-spec/telepathy-spec-0.17.4.tar.gz
sig: http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/releases/telepathy-spec/telepathy-spec-0.17.4.tar.gz.asc

API changes:

* Improve the Hold interface: instead of a boolean "held?" we now have
  a quad-state arrangement (unheld, held, trying to hold, trying to unhold)
  which turns out to be more useful for clients. This API has already been
  implemented as an extension in telepathy-gabble 0.7.3 and in
  telepathy-sofiasip 0.5.8.

API additions:

* Add the Enabled and NormalizedName properties to the Account interface

* The Hold interface is now marked as stable, please include it in bindings

Fixes:

* Explain the intended interaction between the Hold API presented to
  streaming clients (MediaStreamHandler), and signalling to the remote contact

* ListPendingMessages documentation shows up correctly in the HTML spec

Tools changes:

* Some simplifications in doc-generator.xsl

Regards,
    Simon
