Hello guys,

   I have released version 1.0.10 of the gnome-libs.

* Availability

	ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gnome-libs

   If you are installing in Red Hat 6.0 (or Red Hat 5.2 and you are
using the Red Hat RPMS, please read the section at the end).

	          GNOME, Baboon->Bonobo name change).

	* Internationalization

		* Applied patches from Akira Higuchi to use fontsets
	  	  instead of fonts in a number of places (gtk-xmhtml and gnomeui).

* Since gnome-libs-1.0.10-pre1

        * Documentation

		* Integrated Michael Zucchi Zvt widget manual and
		  reference manual.  Very very very nice manual
		  (Michael Zucchi, and some twidlling by me).

		* Proofread gnome-config.1 man page (Kjartan)

        * gnome-config

		* Fixed --modversion support (it was introduced in the
		  previous test release)

	* Fixes

		  conditions (fixes a reported bug on gmc).

		* Memory leak fixing (George).

		  reloaded properly (Tim Janik).

		* Can scan more than one directory for Conf.sh files.
		  It uses the environment variable
		  GNOME_LIBCONFIG_PATH to pull a list of directories
		  that contain Conf.sh files. 
		  
		  (ie, you can finally use gnome-config to install
		  third party libraries on your RH system without
		  requiring root).

	* CORBA:

		  object is a reserved word in every possible case
		  combination in CORBA (Elliot, me).

		  Desktop::File and Desktop::Editor.
