[Matthias Clasen <mclasen redhat com>]

GTK+ 2.11.5 is now available for download at:

 http://download.gnome.org/sources/gtk+/2.11/

gtk+-2.11.5.tar.bz2   md5sum: 45e8fb0ed2358bffee92ad796d313099
gtk+-2.11.5.tar.gz    md5sum: 5189cd0f5a7eea4122e1e269cb5863a6

This is another development release leading up to GTK+ 2.12.

Notes:

 * This is unstable development release. While it has had
   a bit of testing, there are certainly plenty of bugs
   remaining to be found. This release should not be used
   in production.

 * Installing this version will overwrite your existing
   copy of GTK+ 2.10. If you have problems, you'll need
   to reinstall GTK+ 2.10.

 * GTK+ 2.12 will be source and binary compatible with
   the GTK+ 2.10 series; most API additions have been
   finalized at this point, but there may still be
   incompatibilities between this release and the final 
   2.12 release. In particular, the tooltips api changes
   are not complete yet.

 * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.


What is GTK+
============

GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user
interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for
projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application
suites.

GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of
languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and
Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides
an effective method of rapid application development.

GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the
licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all
developers, including those developing proprietary software, without
any license fees or royalties.
