complete ChangeLog since version 1.11:

1.12.0 "The Hidden Village"
===========================

   * Bug Fixes
        - Fixed that a focus change by pointer motion was ignored after
          x-cycle.  [Teika Kazura]

        - Focus-mode 'enter-exit' now ignores 'pointer-out' event.
          Fixing flickering bugs with widgets like GtkComboBox,
          GtkCompletion or Firefox' URL-Bar.  [Teika Kazura]

        - Fixed that 'edge-flip-delay' did not work as expected.  Before
          this fix the edge-action would always be actived when the
          cursor hit the edge, and 'edge-flip-delay' would only delay
          the actual action.  Leaving the edge before 'edge-flip-delay'
          ended, would not stop the action.  Now 'edge-flip-delay'
          properly works when the cursor leaves the edge before
          'edge-flip-delay' ended, the action will not be executed as
          expected.  [Christopher Bratusek]

        - Better detection of transient windows during tiling [Jose A.
          Ortega Ruiz]

   * Build and Installation
        - When building Sawfish while an instance of it is running, a
          sawfish-managed 'conky' instance does no longer get killed.
          [Christopher Bratusek]

        - Fix 'libtool' version check in 'autogen.sh'.  [Christopher
          Bratusek]

        - Remove 'gitclean' Makefile target, improve 'distclean' target.
          [Christopher Bratusek]

   * New Features
        - The Tiling functions now use 'calculate-workarea' to not
          overlap '_NET_WM_STRUT' windows like panels and others.
          [Christopher Bratusek]

        - Let 'window-icon-image' use 'NET_WM_ICON' to get 16x16 icon.
          Also add a size-parameter in case a different one is desired.
          [hans1024]

        - Allow passing of extra (custom) arguments to compton.  [Joshua
          Moller-Mara]

   * Miscellaneous Changes
        - Add 'lumina-window-matchers' for better interaction of Lumina
          and Compton.  Also filter Lumina out from 'cabinet'.
          [Christopher Bratusek]

        - Add double buffering of frame parts to reduce flickering while
          redraw of frames.  [hans1024]

        - Properly filter out 'conky' from 'cabinet'.  [Christopher
          Bratusek]

        - Added session integration for KDE5, '--with-kde5session'
          configure flag, updated 'sawfish.wm.integration.kde',
          sawfish-kde5-session package for Debian GNU/Linux [Christopher
          Bratusek]

        - Restructured session file installation.  Removed
          '--with-xdmsession' configure flag, the bare Sawfish session
          is installed always.  For the remaining there's now an
          configure option each: '--with-matesession' (MATE),
          '--with-luminasession' (Lumina) and '--with-xfcesession'
          (XFCE). [Christopher Bratusek]

        - Properly uninstall all session related files upon 'make
          uninstall' [Christopher Bratusek]

        - Update 'config.sub', 'config.guess' and 'install-sh' to
          2016-04 [Christopher Bratusek]

        - Add window matcher 'never-tile' to 'Conky' by default
          [Christopher Bratusek]

        - Guard 'PangoX' functions as it is going to go away (Debian
          patch) [Emilio Pozuelo Monfort]

        - Merge downstream Debian GNU/Linux packaging scripts upstream
          [Christopher Bratusek]

        - More meaningful error message when 'libXtst' was not found by
          'configure' [Allan Duncan]

        - Add 'GenericName' and 'Categories' to desktop files [OpenSuSE
          patch]

        - Update 'sawfish.spec' [Allan Duncan]

        - Debian code review
             x Fix FSF address across all files [Christopher Bratusek]

             x Fix code spellings [Christopher Bratusek]

             x Rename 'configure.in' to 'configure.ac' [Christopher
               Bratusek]

             x Make build reproducible (Debian patch) [Jose M. Calhariz]

             x Honour 'SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH' for build.h when building
               Debian packages (Debian patch) [Alexis Bienvenüe]

             x Add 'Keyword' entry to 'sawfish.desktop' (Debian patch)
               [Jose M. Calhariz]

             x Do not remove 'wallpaper.jlc' compiled lisp file.  It
               used to break Wallpaper Setter, thus it was removed.  But
               with fixes since the first release of the Wallpaper
               Setter this is no longer the case, thus the compiled file
               does not need to be removed anymore.  (Debian patch)
               [Jose M. Calhariz]
