+- Update to version 2.8.0:
+  + Documentation: Mention use with CMake.
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+Sat Mar 12 12:02:59 UTC 2016 - zaitor@opensuse.org
+
+- Update to version 2.7.2:
+  + Deprecate sigc::ref() and sigc::reference_wrapper(), adding
+    support instead for std::ref(), std::cref(), and
+    std::reference_wrapper().
+  + mem_fun(): Deprecate mem_fun(pointer, func). Leaving just
+    mem_fun(reference, func) (bgo#763215).
+  + Make all operator bool() explicit. (A C++11 feature).
+  + Build:
+    - Remove some now-unnecessary configure checks (bgo#762065).
+    - Update MSVC project.
+  + Documentation: Improve the documentation of mem_fun(), making
+    it clear that mem_fun() does not return a slot.
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+Tue Mar  1 12:36:55 UTC 2016 - zaitor@opensuse.org
+
+- Update to version 2.7.1:
+  + signal: Add a moving connect() method, taking an rvalue
+    reference to a slot (bgo#756484).
+  + can_deduce_result_type_with_decltype: Rename the check()
+    methods to checksize(). check() is a preprocessor macro in Mac
+    OS X (bgo#759315).
+  + Temporarily undefine the nil macro, if it's defined. nil is a
+    preprocessor macro in Objective-C++ and Mac OS X (bgo#695235).
+  + Correct the mem_functor<> declarations.
+

 # PATCH-FIX-OPENSUSE libsigc++-std-c11.patch dimstar@opensuse.org -- Add -std=c11 to CFLAGS when using libsigc++ to build. This is not upstreamable in this form as the used CXX macro should handle that, so needs more work (and entry points in mm-common)
