ANNOUNCE: glibmm 2.27.99

[Murray Cumming <murrayc murrayc com>]

*** glibmm 2.28:

glibmm is a C++ API for glib, used by gtkmm.

glibmm 2.28 wraps new API in GTK+ 2.28. It is is API/ABI-compatible with
glibmm >=2.4. It is a version of the glibmm-2.4 API.
gtkmm and glibmm stay 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:

2.27.99 (unstable):

This is probably the very last release before 2.28.0 which will happen very soon. 
I mean it this time.

Gio:
* Removed Application, ApplicationCommandLine, and ActionGroup because
  they are unfinished. We hope to add them back in glibmm 3.2.
* Removed SettingsBackend because it is unfinished.
* Settings: Removed API that used SettingsBackend.
* Variant: Improved the documentation.

Build: Remove the dependency on mm-common during the tarball build.

*** Development 

There is active discussion on the mailing list: 
http://www.gtkmm.org/mailinglist.shtml
and in the #c++ channel on irc.gnome.org
