Changes in release 0.28 (2006-03-11):
- Added support for XML-RPC-over-X as an alternative to D-BUS. If D-BUS isn't
found, we don't need to abort now (Thomas Leonard).
- Kill the DBUS daemon on logout (Stephen Watson).
- Dropped support for older versions of D-BUS. All the special-case code was
causing maintenence problems (Thomas Leonard).
- Attempt to distinguish dbus 0.33 from 0.35 (new API) and 0.2x (old API)
(Stephen Watson).
- Python2.2 doesn't have the 'logging' module. Import a dummy version instead
in this case (Thomas Leonard).
- Pygtk bug: gdk.Event.time is treated as signed even though it is an unsigned
value, use gdk.Event.get_time() which returns unsigned values (Stephen
Watson).

28-Jan-2006
~~~~~~~~~~~
Debian no longer provide Python D-BUS bindings for their default version

~~~~~~~~~~~
Updated build system to match ROX-Filer: generated files go in the 'build'

RunROX and SetUp panel scripts use freedesktop.org basedir spec.
