ANNOUNCE: Gtk2-Perl 2.6.2

[Torsten Schoenfeld <kaffeetisch gmx de>]

Gtk2-Perl is the collective name for a set of Perl bindings for GTK+
2.x and various related libraries.  These modules make it easy to write
GTK+ and GNOME applications using a natural, Perlish, object-oriented
syntax.

These are the stable releases for GNOME 2.6.2.

  return the proper values.  [Ross]
* Fix incorrect code in examples.  [muppet]
* Doc updates.  [Torsten, Ross]

  Gtk2.pod from the perl library manually in order to get the correct  
  docs from perldoc; the manpage should upgrade fine.  [Torsten]

  Ross]
