* What is it ?
==============
Metacity is a simple window manager that integrates nicely with

* What's changed ?
==================
Thanks to Thomas Thurman, Elijah Newren, Havoc Pennington, Björn
Lindqvist, Gora Mohanty, Alejandro Andres, Andy Morum, Dan Sanders,
Thomas Andersen, Brian Pepple, and Søren Sandmann for improvements in
this release. (Note that "Thomas" below refers to Thomas Thurman if

- An endless array of compositor updates, not all of which are well
explained in the ChangeLog. ;-) Includes an ability to enable and
disable the compositor at runtime, fixed up wobbling effect and new
explosion effect, special magnification handling, different opacity
for different window types like menus, a way of scaling windows,
handling of foreign displays, improved handling of window
moving/resizing, various code restructuring, special runtime checks
for correct extensions and other compositors, lots of bug fixes,
and possibly other stuff I'm missing or not understanding (Søren)
- Removed "move to another workspace" menu when there are exactly two
workspaces (Thomas) [#151183]
- fix type for compositing_manager schema entry (Elijah) [#335901]
- Port more properties to our async system for code cleanliness and
speed improvements (Havoc, Thomas)
- Lots of code cleanup, even more code cleanup, wow our code was
messy (Björn) [#335177, #337507, #336890, #338359]
- Abstract out the functions for setting/unsetting demands attention
hint and avoid doing it when the window isn't obscured (Thomas)
[#305882]
- Change strings to make them more readable, and more
translatable (Gora) [#335720]
- Reduce compiling warnings -- add a number of casts and change
signedness on a number of variables (Björn) [#336032]
- Fixed broken links in README (Alejandro) [#333303]
- Add a tabbing function, bound to alt-f6 by default, to cycle
through the windows of the current application (Thomas) [#94682]
- Fix the build with --disable-xsync (Andy) [#336605]
- Raise windows on maximize/unmaximize (Dan) [#335076]
- Don't have confirmation windows make applications appear to be
locked when closing via the window list (Dan) [#334899]
- Allow any keybinding pref to be specified either with <foo>, a
string, or <foo>_list, a list of strings, or both (Thomas)
[#164831]
- warn and ignore if transient_for is set to a non-top-level window
(Thomas Andersen) [#335524]
- Use po/LINGUAS for listing supported languages (Brian) [#337951]
