PyClutter news

hi everyone;

two weeks ago PyClutter 0.9.2 was released. it was a more low key release than I wanted, so I’ll try to make up for it.

the 0.9.2 developer snapshot of PyClutter brings the Python bindings up to the 1.0 API; apart from the Clutter API they provide top notch access to the COGL API, which means that you’ll be able to implement actors, containers and do so as efficiently as the C API can.

all this is the result of the hard work of the new PyClutter maintainer, Bastian Winkler, who single-handedly ported PyClutter to the Clutter 1.0 API.
