network-light: - Remove the unneeded periodic notification to susbscribers. [Zeeshan Ali Khattak] - Create a new UUID for each instance of network-light. [Hugo Calleja, Zeeshan Ali Khattak] - Use the new gupnp_root_device_new() API. [Jorn Baayen] universal-cp: - Display the device presentation URL [Ross Burton] general: - Fix `make distcheck`. [Zeeshan Ali Khattak]

- Correct function prototype. Fixes #940. [Jorn Baayen] - Include the glib header to satisfy vala-gen-introspect. [Zeeshan Ali Khattak]

- Add tool for generating convenience C wrappers for GUPnP service definitions. [Ross Burton] - Remove xmlDoc argument from gupnp_root_device_new() for simplicity. (xmlDocs can still be passed to gupnp_root_device_new_full()) [Jorn Baayen] - Better documentation, new tutorials and sample code. [Ross Burton] - Improved support for Accept-Language header. [Jorn Baayen] - Various internal improvements. [Zeeshan Ali, Jorn Baayen]

I finally managed to port all the existing C code to Vala. What did i achieve from this exercise? For one thing, the code got much simpler, with LOCs being reduced from 2101 to 1117 (46.8 %). Also this proves that (at least the server-side) GUPnP's Vala bindings are already in a stable/usable state. Special thanks to Jürg Billeter , Ali Sabil and Jussi Kukkonen for their continuous support during this exercise and for quickly fixing bugs that I reported.

So yet once again Mr python decide to tease me when i do `apt-get dist-upgrade`: Setting up python-lxml (2.0.5-1) ... /var/lib/dpkg/info/python-lxml.postinst: /usr/bin/pycentral: /usr/bin/python: bad interpreter: No such file or directory dpkg: error processing python-lxml (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 126 ... Errors were encountered while processing: epiphany-extensions bzr gnome-media-common libgnome-media0 gnome-media pidgin python-lxml E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Meet my new personal hero, Jussi Kukkonen . The only o-hand employee in Finland who almost single-handedly created the Vala bindings of the whole GUPnP stack and ported all our test apps to Vala in a very short amount of time despite the fact that he was completely unfamiliar to Vala and GUPnP (and UPnP itself) when he started working on this task and the fact that the Vala documentation is hardly any complete (especially binding-generation).
