ANNOUNCE: libsigc++ 2.0.7

[Murray Cumming <murrayc murrayc com>]

*** libsigc++ 2.0

libsigc++ implements a typesafe callback system for standard C++. It
allows you to define signals and to connect those signals to any
callback function, either global or a member function, regardless of
whether it is static or virtual.

libsigc++ is used by gtkmm to wrap the GTK+ signal system. It does not
depend on GTK or gtkmm.

Further information is available on the libsigc++ project home page:
http://libsigc.sourceforge.net/


*** Changes:

2.0.7:
