-D-BUS 0.10
-===
-
-- reversed order of args to dbus_message_new()
-- renamed dbus_message_name_is() and some other
- functions
-- change DBusWatch to have dbus_watch_handle()
- similar to dbus_timeout_handle(), drop
- connection/server-specific handle routines
-- change message serials to be unsigned
-- implemented <allow>/<deny>/<limit> features for
- config file; system bus now has a deny-all policy
- by default.
-- system.conf has <includedir>system.d</includedir>
- so packages can install additions to the default
- policy to <allow> the messages they need. e.g.
- CUPS might install a cups.conf - see
- test/data/valid-config-files/system.d/test.conf
- for an example.
-- add timeouts for authentication, activation
-- add glib-style "checks" on public API, enable
- those by default, disable assertions by default
-- add GMainContext argument to GLib setup functions,
- can be NULL for default context. Needed for threads.
-- add 64-bit integer type
-- validate type of standard message header fields
-- consider messages in the org.freedesktop.Local
- namespace to be invalid (to avoid fake disconnect
- messages for example)
-- fix assorted memory leaks and other bugs in
- the SHA-1 auth mechanism
-- cache user database information (groups user is
- in, etc.) helps a lot with NIS
-- always store uid_t, pid_t, gid_t in "ulong"
- rather than "int"
-- implement config file settings for which
- users can connect
-- SHA-1 unit test
-- dbus-send, dbus-monitor command line utilities
-- fixed lots of misc crashes and other bugs
-
-D-BUS 0.9
-===
-
-- implemented a test case for service activation,
- and fixed many bugs exposed by that
-- implemented recursive argument marshaling/demarshaling
- for messages, allowing multidimensional arrays
-- fixed up integration of message dispatch with
- main loop by adding a callback on change of
- dispatch status
-- add a pidfile feature to daemon
-- some build fixes
-- clean up unix domain sockets on exit
-- add --print-address and the ability
- to create a random server address
- in a temporary directory
-
-D-BUS 0.8
-===
-
-- fix dumb bug in 0.7
-
-D-BUS 0.7
-===
-

-- implement daemon mode, changing user ID, and other system
- bus features
-- add init scripts for systemwide bus
-- add "make check-coverage" target to check test coverage
-- more test suite additions
-- many, many bugfixes
-- many API changes/fixes
-
