Good news everyone, after a very long year we a pleased to announce a
new Glade stable release!

It has lots a new features like autosave, automatic backup, support for
the GtkWidget composite template feature, Drag&Drop support from the
palette, inspector and from/to the workspace, and new custom editors for
most classes!

It also have support for new widget classes inclding GtkLevelBar,
GtkRevealer, GtkListBox, GtkOverlay, GtkApplicationWindow and
GtkSearchEntry

As usual this version of Glade depends on GTK+ 3.10, targets GTK+ >= 3.0 and
is parallel installable with Glade 3.8.

If you need to work with Glade projects that target GTK+2, you need an
installation of Glade 3.8 (more information on http://blogs.gnome.org/tvb/2011/01/15/the-glade-dl/)

What is Glade?
============
Glade is a RAD tool to enable quick & easy development of user interfaces
for the GTK+ 3 toolkit and the GNOME desktop environment.

The user interfaces designed in Glade are saved as XML and these can be loaded
by applications dynamically as needed by using GtkBuilder or used directly to
define a new GtkWidget derived object class using Gtk+ new template feature.

By using GtkBuilder, Glade XML files can be used in numerous programming
languages including C, C++, C#, Vala, Java, Perl, Python,and others.
