+Overview of Changes in GTK+ 3.9.6 to 3.9.8
+==========================================
+
+* We've started deprecating GtkStock apis. These apis will continue
+  working until GTK+ 4, so there is no need to rush to replace them.
+  For more information, see
+  https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2013-July/msg00000.html
+  Wholly deprecated as part of this effort:
+  GtkIconFactory, GtkIconSet, GtkIconSource, GtkImageMenuItem,
+  GtkAction, GtkUIManager
+
+* The GtkSettings cleanup that was discussed at the recent GTK+
+  hackfest has started to land. A number of settings have been
+  deprecated and are ignored now:
+  gtk-button-images,
+  gtk-show-unicode-menu,
+  gtk-show-input-method-menu,
+  gtk-enable-mnemonics,
+  gtk-auto-mnemonics,
+  gtk-color-palette,
+  gtk-can-change-accels,
+  cursor blink settings,
+  gtk-fallback-icon-theme,
+  gtk-scrolled-window-placement,
+  menu popup delay settings,
+  gtk-menu-bar-accel,
+  keynav tweaks,
+  gtk-touchscreen-mode,
+  gtk-icon-sizes,
+  im style tweaks,
+  gtk-file-chooser-backend,
+  gtk-enable-tooltips,
+  gtk-visible-focus,
+  tooltip timeout tweaks,
+  toolbar style tweaks
+
+* Initial support for scaled output (on high-dpi screens) has been
+  added. While this can be built with cairo 1.12, it needs a cairo
+  branch to work. Support for this has been added to the Wayland,
+  OS X and Windows backends.
+
+* Bugs fixed:
+ 390048 Entire word search flag
+ 672271 File chooser seems over-enthusiastic about using subdirectories
+ 696498 can't set download folder
