	* Added:   gaim_gtk_blist_node_is_contact_expanded, returns TRUE if

	           now pass a conversation pointer and a pointer to the flags.
	* Changed: "drawing-tooltip," the second argument is now a GString*
	           instead of a char**
	* Changed: Signal propagation now stops after a handler returns a
	           non-NULL value. This value is now returned. Previously,
	           all registered handlers were called and the value from the
	           last handler was used.
	* Changed: "chat-invited" handlers can now return a value to control
	           what happens to the invite (accept, reject, prompt the user).

	* Changed: Renamed "conversation-drag-end" to "conversation-dragging"
	           and emit before the conv. window swap happens. This prevents
	           the old conv window from being freed before the signal emits.
	* Added:   "buddy-added" and "buddy-removed", which are self-explanatory
	* Added:   "blist-node-aliased", an alias was set for a buddy, chat or
	           contact.  See the Doxygen documentation for the details.
	* Changed: "buddy-typing" and "buddy-typing-stopped", replaced the
	           GaimConversation* with GaimAccount*, const char *name.  Also,
	           the signal is now emitted regardless of whether a
	           conversation exists and regardless of whether the user is on
	           the buddy list.
