clutter trunk should not be used except for developing clutter itself -
that's the usual rule we've been following since we released 0.2[1]. 

the external dependency on clutter for gnome 2.26 is 0.8, from the
clutter-0-8 branch.

we don't have a release date for clutter 1.0 at the moment; best case
scenario is that we release 1.0 around january or february '09, but that
would hit the various freezes. obviously, we'd start releasing 0.9
developer snapshots before that, so migration would be possible; we're
not deprecating much this time, and most of the changes are in the
low-level API. having said that, I think it's safe to stay with 0.8.

ciao,
 Emmanuele.
