Re: ANNOUNCE: gtkmm 2.21.8.1

[Murray Cumming <murrayc murrayc com>]

I plan to release gtkmm 2.22.0 on September 27th, as per the GNOME
schedule:
http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointThirtyone

So this is your last chance to tell us about problems in the new API. To
help you, here is a fairly complete list of that new API:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtkmm/2.21/since__2__22.html
(There's even more new API in gtkmm 3, but that's a separate problem for
later.)

And here is a big diff of all changes compared to the gtkmm-2-20 branch:
http://www.murrayc.com/temp/gtkmm-2.22.diff

I've had almost zero help with gtkmm 2.22 and it's been lots of work, so
I'd really appreciate at least a last-minute check now.
