ANNOUNCE: gtkmm 2.17.9

[Murray Cumming <murrayc murrayc com>]

*** gtkmm 2.18:

gtkmm 2.17 wraps new API in GTK+ 2.17. It will become the API/ABI-stable 
gtkmm 2.18 when GTK+ 2.18.0 is released. gtkmm 2.19 is API/ABI-compatibile with 
gtkmm >=2.4. It is a version of the gtkmm-2.4 API.

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.
