I am pleased to announce that a new release of the libvirt-glib package,
version 0.2.1, is now available from

  ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/glib/

The packages are GPG signed with

    Key fingerprint: DAF3 A6FD B26B 6291 2D0E  8E3F BE86 EBB4 1510 4FDF (4096R)

Changes in this release:

- Fix libtoolize detection in autogen.sh
- Allow storage volume format compatibility level to be set
- Add pre-condition checks to more public API entry points
- Don't try to return a value from void functions
- Add API for controlling storage pool autostart flag
- Add API for filesystem image format
- Add loop, nbd and ploop filesystem types
- Fix setting of driver type when called more than once


libvirt-glib comprises three distinct libraries:

   - libvirt-glib    - Integrate with the GLib event loop and error handling
   - libvirt-gconfig - Representation of libvirt XML documents as GObjects
   - libvirt-gobject - Mapping of libvirt APIs into the GObject type system

NB: While libvirt aims to be API/ABI stable forever, with libvirt-glib
we are not currently guaranteeing that libvirt-glib libraries are
permanently API/ABI stable. That said we do not expect to break the
API/ABI for the forseeable future and will always strive avoid it.

Follow up comments about libvirt-glib should be directed to the regular
libvir-list at redhat.com development list.

Thanks to all the people involved in contributing to this release.

Regards,
Daniel
