[ Sebastien Bacher ]
* New upstream version
* debian/control.in:
  - the new libgweather version is in oneiric, use it
  - drop the python and python-gconf depends, 
    they were added for gnome-panel-add which is still using gconf and buggy
* debian/gnome-panel-data.install:
  - don't install the apport hook, it's only getting gconf datas which 
    doesn't work since gnome-panel uses gsettings
* debian/patches/90_build_fixes.patch:
  - restore build fix from git not applied in the new serie
* debian/patches/01_panel_submenus.patch:
  - don't take that Debian diff, the .menus use the upstream naming in Ubuntu
* debian/patches/06_no_resize_grip.patch:
  - dropped, the issue is fixed in the new version
* debian/patches/50_fix-potfiles.patch:
  - dropped, the issue is fixed in the new version
* debian/watch:
  - track unstable series as well

Drop those delta, since gnome-panel is not the default Ubuntu session now we
can go back to an experience closer to the upstream one: 
* debian/control.in:
  - drop the indicators recommends, unity-2d is the ubuntu fallback session
    so we can get back to use an upstream config for gnome-panel and reduce
    the delta we carry
* debian/patches/04_default_panel_config.patch:
  - don't modify the upstream layout
* debian/patches/05_no_session_delay.patch:
  - no need to tweak the upstream session to optimize it
* debian/patches/16_compiz_workspace_switcher.patch:
  - go back to the upstream switcher behaviour    
* debian/patches/25_dynamic_fusa_detection.patch:
  - not needed since we use the upstream layout, could be ported if someone
    is wanting to do the work though
* debian/patches/30_disable-initial-animation.patch, debian/rules:
  - drop the --disable-initial-animation, that was some login optimization
    but since it's not the default desktop you should go back to the 
    upstream behaviour

     While applets are rather simple to write, they are not the most easy form of interaction to users for two reasons: it is not intuitive how to add or remove applets for many users, and the restriction in size of applets can limit their interface. Therefore, before writing an applet, think hard whether this is the form of interaction that is best for the feature you want to provide.

     Keep in mind that starting with GNOME 3, the panel and applets are only available in the fallback mode. An applet will therefore not be usable in the default GNOME that users may use.
