Release notes for PyClutter 0.8.0
---------------------------------

The cluttercairo, cluttergst and cluttergtk submodules of clutter have
been moved into their own modules. In order to import them, the import
directive must be changed from:

        from clutter import cluttercairo
        from clutter import cluttergst
        from clutter import cluttergtk

to:

        import cluttercairo
        import cluttergst
        import cluttergtk

The order of the import directives is also relevant, because of the
required initialization process of the underlying C libraries. The
correct order for importing the clutter and related modules is:

        first ↑
              | import cluttergtk
              | import cluttergst
              | import clutter
              | import cluttercairo
         last ↓

If you are importing the gst module, you must import it after the
cluttergst module.

If you are importing the gtk module, you must import it after the
cluttergtk module.
