Signature:

The latest reviewed code is always available from:
git://git.collabora.co.uk/git/telepathy-mission-control.git
http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=telepathy-mission-control.git (gitweb)

Dependencies:

* The GNOME Keyring library is a new optional dependency (only if configured
  with --enable-gnome-keyring=yes or --enable-gnome-keyring=auto).
  
  If it is enabled, having the library at runtime is required, but having the
  daemon itself is optional - the current plain-text storage will be used for
  passwords if the keyring daemon is not available.

Enhancements:

* fd.o#20903: support the final version of ContactCapabilities, from
  telepathy-spec 0.17.28 (smcv)

* fd.o#22231: add optional gnome-keyring integration. This is off by default,
  but distributions should consider configuring MC with --enable-gnome-keyring
  to get this functionality. (jonnylamb/smcv)

* mc-tool: show full Presence information (sjoerd)

* Use the "mcd" G_LOG_DOMAIN (smcv)

* fd.o#23501: support TpDebugSender (smcv)

* Stop #define'ing g_object_ref, g_object_unref (smcv)

* fd.o#22705: support MC_DEBUG=all (smcv)

Fixes:

* Escape "-" in protocol names in Account names, as required by the Telepathy
  spec (sjoerd)

* fd.o #23818: if HandleChannels fails, try all Handlers in sequence before
  giving up (smcv)

* Refactor client locking in McdDispatcher to be more obviously correct (smcv)

* Don't define macros used in glibc feature-test internals, possibly fixing
  failure to build from source on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD (smcv)

* Fix a reference leak when shooting down an unwanted Connection (wjt/smcv)

* fd.o#23921: force dbus-daemon to re-detect .service files on MC startup,
  as a partial workaround for D-Bus bug fd.o#23925 (George Goldberg)

* fd.o#23935: call AddRequest if appropriate even on clients that match only
  channels with Requested=true, and use requested channels' complete
  properties in preference to the properties that were requested (smcv)

* Make signed values in .client files work instead of g_critical'ing (smcv)

* This release also includes all bugfixes from stable-branch versions up to
  and including 5.2.3.

Regards,
    Simon
