xpad is a sticky note application written using GTK+ 3.0 that strives to be
simple, fault-tolerant, and customizable. xpad consists of independent pad
windows; each is basically a text box in which notes can be written. Despite
being called xpad, all that is needed to run or compile it is the GTK+ 3.0
libraries. Here is a list of major features in the current xpad current
release:
* GTK+ 3.0 powered text view.
* Fault tolerant. All information is kept on the hard drive, not memory.
* xpad is very customizable. The color scheme (text, background, and window
borders) and the font can be changed.
* A customizable toolbar puts the most frequently used commands at your
fingertips.
* Support for the X session management protocol.
* Support for the www.freedesktop.org system tray proposal.

* Update the glib to 2.34.3 and gtk20 to 2.24.17 and gtk30 to 3.6.4 which
are the latest stable releases.
* Update vala to the newest stable release 0.18.1, also update a few ports
in the gtk/gnome stack.
* The c++ bindings ports for glib, atk, gconf, etc, have now USE_GNOME toggles.
* Remove pkg-config run depends from glib20 and freetype2. This doesn't
eliminate pkg-config run dependency completely, a second phase is needed
and is planned.
* Support for .:run. and .:build. for USE_GNOME components was added.
Currently only libxml2 and libxslt support this mechanism.
* Updates of the telepathy stack and empathy.
* Trim makefile headers, convert ports to new options, trim off library
versions for some ports.
* Fix other ports so they build with the new glib version.
Thanks to miwi and crees for helping out with some exp-runs.
