ANNOUNCEMENT: gnome-keyring 3.0.0



gnome-keyring is the part of the GNOME Desktop that saves your passwords
and encryption keys securely.

This is a stable release.


Important Notes:
================

 * A new library: libgck

 * Use --with-gtk=3.0 to build with GTK 3.0

 * libgp11 library has gone away.

 * libgnome-keyring and gnome-keyring modules need to be upgraded
   together to the same version. The running gnome-keyring-daemon
   needs to match the libgnome-keyring version.
