+- Update to new upstream release 0.8.0
+* Improved touchpad support. For example, it is not necessary
+  anymore to lift all fingers when switching from scrolling to
+  pointer movement.
+* Scroll event types were merged. Previously we supplied horiz/vert
+  scrolling as separate event, even in diagnonal scrolling.
+  Now each scroll event may contain one or more axes.
+* Support for axis sources: a scroll event can be of source finger,
+  wheel or continuous. This enables callers to implement kinetic
+  ("fling") scrolling.
+* Scroll wheel events now return the data in degrees. A matching
+  udev hwdb system is in place to adjust this when needed. A
+  "discrete" scroll value is available if you are interested in
+  the clicks only.
+* Left-handed configuration was renamed. For future tablet support,
+  the button-based naming was inappropriate. A simple
+  search/replace fixes this.
