Metacity 2.9.21



* What is it ?
==============

Metacity is a simple window manager that integrates nicely with
GNOME 2.

* What's changed ?
==================

This is an unstable release heading towards Gnome 2.10.  Since there
have been an awful lot of fixes since Gnome 2.10 Beta 2, we are hoping
to get an extra week of wider testing of all these changes before hard
code freeze.

Thanks to Aidan Delaney, Crispin Flowerday, Elijah Newren, and Joe
Marcus Clarke for fixes in this release.

 - Make sure we get a valid timestamp if one doesn't come with the
   _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW message (Elijah, Crispin) [#166728]
 - Avoid sending CurrentTime to our XSetInputFocus wrappers, but
   handle it better in case we miss any cases (Elijah) [#166732]
 - Remove useless function call (Aidan) [#166730]
 - Avoid new windows being obscured by the focus window and thus
   possibly lost (Elijah) [#166524]
 - Don't unconditionally place not-to-be-focused windows, such as
   splashscreens, below the focus window (Elijah) [#167042]
 - Raise the ancestor of a window instead of the window itself
   (Elijah) [#166894]
 - Cover half a dozen issues needed to fix a variety of rare timestamp
   bugs (Elijah) [#167358]
 - Fix a possible crash on logout (Joe) [#167935]
 - Fix an obscure xinerama placement bug with windows that are too
   large to fit in the workarea in both dimensions (Elijah) [#166757]
 - Ignore all focus and focus-stealing-prevention code in
   meta_window_show when not showing the window for the first time
   (Elijah) [#167199]
 - when receiving a _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW message, switch to the desktop
   where the window is located before activating instead of moving the
   window to the current desktop (Elijah) [#128380]
 - Handle _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP messages that come with timestamps
   (Elijah) [#161361]
 - Handle keynav vs. mousenav in mouse and sloppy focus modes (Elijah)
   [#167545]
