+* GtkAction works with named icons in addition to stock icons
+
+* GtkNotebook supports DND, allowing to reorder tabs, move tabs
+ between notebooks and drop tabs on the desktop to open a new window
+
+* GtkTreeView changes:
+ - Enhanced customizability (e.g. grouping) with the
+ show-expanders and level-indentation properties
+ - Allow to embed the search popup
+ - Better search popup positioning
+
+* Reworked hex Unicode input now requires Ctrl-Shift-U
+
+* Animations can now be globally controlled by settings
+
+* The gtk-touchscreen-mode setting controls a number of changes
+ that make GTK+ work better on touchscreens
+
+* Password entries can optionally show the last entered character
+ for a short while, controlled by the password-hint-timeout setting
+
+* GTK+ can now consult an additional fallback icon theme before
+ falling back to hicolor
+
+* Improved themability:
+ - GTK+ supports symbolic colors, which can be set system-wide
+ using a setting, and can be modified and used in rc files
+ and theme engines
+ - GTK+ sets window type hints on override-redirect windows to
+ help compositing managers apply proper bling
+ - Paths in rc files can now refer to all subclasses of a class
+ - GtkRange steppers will appear insensitive when the slider
+ is at the end; applications which need to handle this case
+ (e.g. to extend the range) can opt out of this.
+ - GtkRange::activate-slider style property allows themes
+ to draw sliders differently while they are being dragged
+ - GtkNotebook::tab-overlap and GtkNotebook::curvature style
+ properties allow more flexible notebook theming
+ - The spacing of buttons around children can be themed with
+ the GtkButton::inner-border style property. Apps can override
+ this per-widget using the corresponding inner-border property
+ - GtkMenu has aquired a horizontal-padding style property
+ - There are style properties for the color of hyperlinks,
+ GtkWidget::link-color and GtkWidget::visited-link-color
+ - GtkTreeview row hinting now takes the selection into account
+ - Scrolling menus can be forced to always display both arrows,
+ using the GtkMenu::double-arrows style property
+ - Separators can be themed using the wide-separators, separator-width
+ and separator-height style properties
+ - GtkTreeView allows more flexible theming with the row-ending-details
+ property
+ - The pixbuf theme engines supports customized drawing of expanders
+ and resize grips
+
+* GDK changes:
+ - OS X backend
+ - DirectFB backend
+ - Closing displays works
+ - gdk_screen_is_composited to check for running compositing manager
+ - Support for Super, Hyper and Meta modifiers

+
+* Bug fixes
