General changes:
Pycairo has been updated to work with cairo 1.0.0.

New cairo functions supported:
| cairo.cairo_version()
| cairo.cairo_version_string()
| PSSurface.set_dpi()

Patterns are now implemented in a class hierarchy, the new constructors are:
| cairo.SolidPattern (r, g, b, a=1.0)
| cairo.SurfacePattern (surface)
| cairo.LinearGradient (x0, y0, x1, y1)
| cairo.RadialGradient (cx0, cy0, radius0, cx1, cy1, radius1)

Updated functions:
Surface.write_to_png() now accepts a file object as well as a filename

Updated examples:
The gtk examples now work with pygtk >= 2.7.0 without requiring the
cairo.gtk module

Bug Fixes:
fix "initializer element is not constant" compiler warnings

------------------

General changes:
Pycairo has been updated to work with cairo 0.9.0.

New cairo functions supported:
| cairo_get_antialias
| cairo_set_antialias
| cairo_surface_mark_dirty_rectangle
| cairo_surface_flush

Bug Fixes:
* double buffering now works with the cairo.gtk module

------------------

This version has many changes which update Pycairo to the new cairo API. The
change list is not duplicated here, instead see the cairo/NEWS file for full
details of all these API changes.

Pycairo method names that were different from the underlying cairo function
names have been changed to make Pycairo more closely follow cairo and so
enable the cairo documentation to be used for writing Pycairo programs. NOTES
has been updated to list the differences between the C API and the Pycairo
API.

Context.copy_path() has been implemented, it returns a Path instance which
supports the iterator protocol.

Python 2.3 is now required.

New examples:
examples/warpedtext.py: shows usage of the Path iterator

examples/cairo_snippets/: shows many of the 'cairo-demo/cairo_snippets'
examples

examples/gtk/png_view.py: example using cairo.ImageSurface.create_from_png()

General changes:
Pycairo has been updated to work with cairo 0.6.0, including using cairo's
new error handling scheme.

New features:
cairo.CONTENT_COLOR, cairo.ALPHA, cairo.COLOR_ALPHA have been added for
working with surfaces.

A new class cairo.FontOptions has been added.

cairo.ImageSurface.create_from_png() now accepts a filename string or a
file object

New wrapper functions have been added for cairo_get_font_options,
cairo_set_font_options and cairo_surface_get_font_options.

------------------

New features:
* new class cairo.Win32Surface (Niki Spahiev)
* cairo.HAS_WIN32_SURFACE, cairo.HAS_PS_SURFACE etc are defined to give
access to the values from cairo-features.h

Fixes:
* fix cairo_mask, cairo_mask_surface and cairo_stroke_preserve wrappers
* compile properly against GTK+ 2.7 (Gustavo Carneiro)
* other small fixes, including fixes for gcc 4.0 warnings

------------------

New cairo bindings:
| cairo_font_extents

Bindings removed:
| cairo_font_set_transform
| cairo_font_current_transform

New examples:
gtk/hangman.py

Other:
Changed version numbering to correspond directly with the Cairo version
Pycairo was developed to work with. So, for example, Pycairo version 0.4.0
represents the Pycairo version that has been developed and tested with
Cairo 0.4.0.

------------------

The Pycairo license has changed so that it is now dual-licensed under the LGPL
and the MPL, the same as Cairo itself. For details see the COPYING file as
well as COPYING-LGPL-2.1 and COPYING-MPL-1.1.

New cairo bindings:
| cairo_pdf_surface_create
| cairo_set_target_pdf

New libsvg-cairo bindings:
| svg_cairo_parse
| svg_cairo_parse_buffer
| svg_cairo_render
| svg_cairo_get_size

Other:
* Added --without-pygtk configure option.
* Renamed the Pycairo API _new() functions to _wrap() to allow _new() to
* be used for python __new__ functions.
* New examples: svg2png.py and svgview.py.
