version 0.4.0 (20-November-2008):
* Bumped up the required minimum version of GTK+ to 2.10.0.
* Bump the notification spec version we're compliant with to 1.0.
* Send the reason code along with the NotificationClosed signal in order
to indicate why the notification was closed. (Bug #137)
* Send an error if the user attempts to close an already closed
notification.
* Text is now escaped in the summary in the Standard theme so that
ampersands and other special characters show up instead of disappearing.
(Bug #132)
* Set the type hint for notifications to TYPE_NOTIFICATION. (Bug #146)
* Added support for playing sounds when the "sound-file" hint is set or
when the default_sound GConf key is set, as well as support for the
"suppress-sound" hint. Patch by Jim Ramsay. (Ticket #111)
* Added a control panel applet for controlling such things as the
notification theme and popup positions. Patch by John Wendell.
(Ticket #126)
* Added better support for attaching context notifications to an icon on
the system tray, even when it moves. Patch by Colin Walters.
* Added an Arabic translation. Patch by Djihed Afifi. (Ticket #131)
* Added an Italian translation. Patch by Luca Ferretti.
* Fixed a bug where text would sometimes get truncated. (Ticket #162)
* Fixed a bug where notifications weren't displayed if a fullscreen
window was minimized. (Bug #142)
* Fixed a bug where we were quitting on theme engine failure, instead of
falling back to the default theme engine. Patch by
driehuis-at-playbeing.org. (Ticket #128)
* Fixed a bug where notifications with arrows were crossing the monitor
on multihead setups instead of staying on their head. Patch by M.S.
(Bug #5)
* Fixed the close button size on the notifications so that they don't
stretch. Patch by Luca Cavelli. (Bug #127)
* Fixed a crash when an unsupported value type was passed in for the
urgency when using the standard theme. (Bug #135)
changes:
* The background of the window in the standard theme is now just slightly
transparent when compiled against GTK+ 2.10 and when using a composite
manager.

-bugfixes
the --prefix argument (quick 'n dirty fix, hopefully upstream will
catch up),
-announce .schema to gconf
-being here, update to 0.3.6, changes:
-Added a GConf key to specify which corner of the screen notifications
should appear in
-Added a Dutch translation
-bugfixes
* Add three new required theme functions:
- theme_check_init - determines if the theme is compatible with the
running version of notification-daemon.
- get_theme_info - returns info on the theme.
- clear_notification_actions - Clears the notification action buttons
on the window.
* Disabled the Bubble theme for this release. It's the source of too
many bugs.
* Fix the scaling of different icon sizes. Now small icons display as
small, and larger icons are scaled down to 48x48.
* Fixed a problem where icons were being clipped in notifications.
Patch by M.S. (Bug #21)
* Fixed incorrect usage of GtkIconTheme. (Bug #38)
* Fixed notifications with a timeout of 2147484ms or longer expiring
in less than a second. (Bug #22)
* Fixed a bug where a notification would duplicate its actions when
updated. (Bug #30)
* The Standard theme's countdown timer is now rendered using Cairo when
compiled against Gtk 2.8.0 or higher. This improves the timer by making
it antialiased.
* Renamed notification-daemon.service to
org.freedesktop.Notifications.service.
notification-daemon is an application that shows notifications sent by
other applications on your desktop in the form of popups. It is based
on the libnotify library.
