+D-Bus 1.1.1 (18 June 2007)
+==
+- This is a development release, unless you need specific
+ functionality please use the stable releases as API's may change
+ (though we will try hard not to)
+- The bus daemon now generates a globally-unique ID for itself, which is available
+ using the convenience function dbus_bus_get_id(). Use this as a unique ID
+ for a user's session, for example.
+- dbus_server_get_id(), dbus_connection_get_server_id() now available to access
+ the unique ID of a particular address
+- dbus_watch_get_fd() deprecated since it had unclear cross-platform semantics.
+ dbus_watch_get_unix_fd() and dbus_watch_get_socket() replace it.
+- support ANONYMOUS mechanism for authentication, which allows a client to
+ authenticate as nobody in particular
+- add API dbus_connection_set_allow_anonymous() which will allow the message
+ stream to begin if the client auths as anonymous (otherwise, the client
+ will be dropped unless they auth as a user).
+- the ANONYMOUS support means you can now use D-Bus (without a bus daemon) as
+ a protocol for a network service provided to anonymous Internet or LAN
+ clients
+- many internal changes to better support the Windows port, though the
+ port is still not complete in this release
+- some improved documentation and return_if_fail checks
+- some small bug fixes
+
