telepathy-spec 0.17.6, the "GetAll()" release.

The latest release is, as always, available from:
http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/spec.html
http://darcs.collabora.co.uk/darcs/telepathy/telepathy-spec/
or for packagers (e.g. http://packages.debian.org/telepathy-spec):
tar: http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/releases/telepathy-spec/telepathy-spec-0.17.6.tar.gz
sig: http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/releases/telepathy-spec/telepathy-spec-0.17.6.tar.gz.asc

API changes:

* The core Account interface no longer has an Avatar property, so that clients
  can safely call GetAll for properties without flooding the bus with avatars

API additions:

* Group interface state is now in terms of properties, so you can use GetAll
  to get a full state snapshot:
  - Group.GroupFlags property (deprecating GetGroupFlags method)
  - Group.SelfHandle property and Group.SelfHandleChanged signal (deprecating
    GetSelfHandle method, and adding change-notification)
  - Group.HandleOwners property and Group.HandleOwnersChanged signal
    (deprecating GetHandleOwners method, and adding change-notification)
  - Group.LocalPendingMembers, Group.Members, Group.RemotePendingMembers
    properties (deprecating GetMembers, GetLocalPendingMembers,
    GetLocalPendingMembersWithInfo, GetRemotePendingMembers and GetAllMembers
    methods)
* Account.Interface.Avatar replaces the Account.Avatar property

Fixes:

* Messages, DeliveryReporting are correctly marked as experimental

Tools changes:

* Correctly pass through HTML attributes into the HTML spec
* Add markup <tp:type>Name_Of_Type</tp:type> which generates HTML links

Regards,
    Simon
