ANNOUNCE: gtkmm 2.4.6 and glibmm 2.4.5



*** gtkmm and glibmm 2.4

gtkmm provides a C++ interface to GTK+. gtkmm 2.4 installs in parallel with 
gtkmm 2.2, so you can have both installed at the same time. glibmm is now 
a separate module, for use in non-GUI software.

gtkmm stays in-sync with GTK+ by following the official GNOME release schedule:
http://www.gnome.org/start/unstable/

Bindings for the rest of the GNOME Platform are also available, and are also 
API-stable.
