  * Specify /usr/bin/python in gwibber-accounts instead of relying on
    env (LP: #988385)

  * Make sure we don't keep references to Dee.ModelIter that has been
    removed (LP: #937607)
  * Use the SHA1 hash of the avatar URL instead of simply stripping the

  * improved error handling to UrlLib2Downloader (David Klasinc) (LP: #946049)
  * facebook: try to handle data from facebook of type=question to
    prevent empty posts in the feed
  * since gtk+ 3.3.18 scroll events are getting blocked in the Gtk.Label

NEW in 3.3.5 (02/15/2012)
============

No more dependency on the static python bindings for webkit-gtk2,
gwibber-accounts now uses GIR and webkit-gtk3

Now requires gir1.2-gnomekeyring-1.0 and gir1.2-webkit-3.0


NEW in 3.3.4 (02/14/2012)
============

Completed dropped python multiprocessing and refactored the service threading.
Including improving ability to catch individual operation failures.

Bugs fixed:
- Can't response or write to someone from their user information
   page (LP: #926081)
- "Repeat"ing a status on StatusNet fails silently (Scott Sweeny) (LP: #923144)


NEW in 3.3.3 (01/30/2012)
============

Greatly improved scrolling, but still not smooth scrolling.  Inline comments
and image previews are now enclosed in a Gtk.Expander and only load when
expanded.  This prevents the tiles resizing while scrolling and
greatly improves performance while scrolling.

Cleaned up all the Gtk 3.3 deprecations

Now requires valac-0.16

Bugs fixed:
- Fixed a memory leak in ActionBoxItem (LP: #909085)
- Fixed race conditions in async image loading while scrolling (LP: #911619)
- Hide window while gwibber exits (Michal Hruby)
- Improved scrolling by enclosing comments and image previews in a
   Gtk.Expander, this fixes the tiles resizing while scrolling (LP: #875348)


NEW in 3.3.2 (01/13/2012)
============

Now requires libunity >= 5.0.0 and libdee >= 1.0.0

* The gwibber-service now uses significantly less power by ensuring the
  multiprocessing pool is closed when operations are complete.  
* GtkSpell pkgconfig name has been renamed to gtkspell-3.0

Bugs fixed:
- Cancel async image loading on tile reset, this actually breaks image
   loading but prevents crashing with gtk >= 3.3.6 (LP: #911619)
- The x people liked this string should use plurals. (LP: #863039)
- gwibber-service has a child that polls at 10Hz which is causing a lot
   of wakeup events Remove (LP: #906916)
- Fixed disabling of gtkspell in build system (LP: #834780)
- Renamed gtkspell-3.0 pkgconfig now that upstream has merged gtk3
   support (LP: #860648)
