+Overview of Changes from GTK+ 2.17.1 to 2.17.2
+==============================================
+
+* GtkInfoBar: A new widget to show a transient 'message area'
+  inside a content pane. The API is similar to GtkDialog and
+  supports theming for different message types (warnings,
+  errors, etc)
+
+* Changes that are relevant for theme authors:
+ - The new GtkInfoBar widget uses symbolic colors for theming
+   its background color depending on the message type. By default,
+   it uses the same background color as tooltips. This can be turned
+   off with style property.
