Release notes for 4.17.0
========================
[Please note that this is a development release.]

This is the first development release of xfce-dev-tools 4.17.
To all developers and contributors, please update :)
Notable changes: 
- Reduce the number of warnings at "./autogen.sh" stage. 
- Simplify the "xdt-autogen" workflow by only calling "autoreconf"
- autoconf 2.69+ is now needed (released almost 10 years ago)
- Compilations warnings are now always enabled, whatever the
"--enable-debug" mode used. This will help us catch compilers warnings.
- Also, this version get rid of really old m4 macros/usages, like
AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT or glib-gettextize.
