Release Notes for Clutter 1.6
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• The internal copy of JSON-GLib has been removed: Clutter now strictly
depends on the installed copy of this library. The --with-json configure
switch has been removed.
• The ClutterBehaviour class and its sub-classes have been deprecated; the
Clutter API reference contains a migration guide to port code based on
behaviours to the implicit animations framework.
• The ClutterTimeoutPool and clutter_frame_source_* API have been deprecated;
both API are not integrated in the Clutter main loop, and are not used
internally any longer, so they are of relative use.
