ANNOUNCE: gtkmm 2.91.1

[Murray Cumming <murrayc murrayc com>]

*** gtkmm 2.91:

gtkmm 2.91 (previously 2.90) wraps GTK+ 2.91. It is the gtkmm-3.0 ABI and installs in 
parallel with the gtkmm-2.4 ABI, of which gtkmm 2.20 is currently the latest stable 
version. This allows application developers to start using it when they choose to, 
without being forced, and without breaking existing installed applications.

gtkmm-3.0 will be mostly API-compatible with gtkmm-2.4, though some small 
changes will be needed in application source code.

Note that there will also be a gtkmm 2.23 (to become 2.24) version, which has small 
API additions.

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

2.91.1 (unstable)

* Remove ComboBoxEntry and ComboBoxEntryText.
* ComboBox:
  - Add a has_entry bool to the constructors, replacing use of GtkComboBoxEntry.
  - Added set_entry_text_column(), get_entry() and get_entry_text(),
  - Added set_popup_fixed_width()
* ComboBoxText: Re-implemented with GtkComboBoxText.
  As a bonus this means that insert_text() will now work, and we can now
  define this widget and its data items in Glade.
* Main: Remove signal_run() and signal_quit().
* RadioButton: Added join_group().
* StatusBar: Remove get/set_has_resize_grip().
* Window: Added get/set_has_resize_grip(), get_resize_grip_is_visible(), get_resize_grip_area().
* Remove WrapBox.
