[Usability] Glade 3.1.1 snapshot

[Tristan Van Berkom <tvb gnome org>]

Hi,
   This is the second snapshot of the 3.1 series (keeping in sync with
gnome 2.17.3). As I mentioned in the 3.1.0 announcement, we are doing a
big UI overhaul in this release cycle so we are eager to hear any comments
people have about the UI, we need your critical eye for detail to help
model a good and usable interface that will hopefully meet everyones needs.

I'm happy to say there's been steady development and we're sure you'll like
what's on the menu :)

What is Glade ?
===============
Glade is a RAD tool to enable quick & easy development of user interfaces
for the Gtk+ toolkit and the GNOME desktop environment.
The user interfaces designed in Glade are stored in XML format,
enabling easy integration with external tools.
In particular libglade can load the XML files and create the interfaces
at runtime. The DTD for the XML files is included with libglade, and is
also at http://glade.gnome.org/glade-2.0.dtd.
Other tools are available which can turn the XML files into source code
in languages such as C++, Perl and Python.

New features and fixes
======================
   - Use GtkRecent and removed manual recent project handling (Vincent 
Geddes)
   - Refactoring of UI frontend & palette code (Vincent Geddes)
   - Selector button from the palette is now hidden and one is placed 
on the
     toolbar instead (Vincent Geddes)
   - Refactoring of core/plugin interface, now the plugin derives an 
adaptor
     type to interface with the core.
   - New bindings framework, this includes a bindings core module and 
an initial
     implementation of the python binding (Juan Pablo Ugarte)
   - Added core support for plugins to implement actions on the context 
menu,
     AND support for scripted context menu actions (Juan Pablo Ugarte)
   - Cleanup of gnome catalog code (Juan Pable Ugarte)
