* Notes

   o this is unstable development release. While it has had a bit of
     testing, there are certainly plenty of bugs remaining to be found.
     this release should not be used in production.

   o this version is API and ABI incompatible with the current stable
     release of Clutter. the API has been mostly frozen, but it can
     still change within the 0.5 development snapshots cycle.

   o this version is parallel installable with Clutter 0.4 and with the
     upcoming 0.6 release. installing this version will overwrite the
     files from the previous 0.5.0 version, or the installed files from
     a SVN checkout.

   o Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.o-hand.com

* List of changes between 0.5.0 and 0.5.2

   o ClutterModelDefault has been renamed to ClutterListModel

   o ClutterModel now has vector-based variants for append, prepend and
     insert methods; these methods are useful for bindings

   o Add units-based variant for clutter_actor_move_by()

   o ClutterLabel layout issues present in 0.5.0 have been fixed

   o The EGL backend build has been fixed

* List of bugs fixed

   o #694 - Handle GLhandleARB on OS X [Tommi Komulainen]
   o #700 - Fix for clutter_effect_rotate() [Neil Roberts]

  Tommi Komulainen
