This Week in GTK+ – 12

In this last week, the master branch of GTK+ has seen 28 commits, with 1868 lines added and 1422 lines removed.

Planning and status
Notable changes
  • Georges Basile Stavracas Neto has made the formerly private GtkShortcutLabel widget, used by the shortcuts window, part of the public API; the widget will be used in the GNOME Control Center keyboard options, and can be used by applications that allow editing their own keyboard shortcuts, like PiTiVi.
