ANNOUNCE: gtkmm 2.9.9

[Murray Cumming <murrayc murrayc com>]

*** gtkmm 2.9/2.10:

gtkmm 2.9 wraps new API in GTK+ 2.9, and is API/ABI-compatibile with gtkmm 2.8, 
2.6 and 2.4. It is a version of the gtkmm-2.4 API. This will become the 
API-stable gtkmm 2.10, wrapping GTK+ 2.10.

gtkmm stays in-sync with GTK+ by following the official GNOME release schedule:
http://www.gnome.org/start/unstable/

Bindings for the rest of the GNOME Platform are also available, and are also 
API-stable.

*** Changes

gtkmm 2.9.9:

gtkmm 2.9/2.10 is now API frozen. We expect to make only very small API changes before 
releasing gtkmm 2.10.0.

Gtk:
* PrintOperation: get_print_settings(): Ref the return to avoid a crash.
  (Marko Anastasov)
* RecentManager: Change add_fullI to add_item(), overloading according to the 
  parameters. (Jonathon Jongsma)
* SpinButton: Added "wrapped" signal, without a default signal handler, to 
  preserve ABI. (Murray Cumming)
* Widget:
  - Correct the new composited_changed signal to avoid breaking ABI.
  (Murray Cumming)
  Bug #348241 from Daniel Holbach.
  - Fixed a typo so that input_shape_combine_mask() is really wrapped.
  (Marko Anastasov)
* Build: Build with the new glibmm --enable-api-default-signal-handlers=no 
  option for reduced-resources embedded devices. (Murray Cumming)

Documentation:
* Printing examples: Use the new gdkmm cairo methods instead of the 
  C functions. (Marko Anastasov)
