Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.7 (2008-10-177)
------------------------------------------------

 * Using GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_LOCAL combined with
   GPGME_KEYLIST_MODE_EXTERN is now supported; it uses the
   --locate-keys feature of gpg (>= 2.0.10).

 * The encoding of gpgme_data_t objects can affect the output encoding
   of export, sign and encrypt operations now (the same operations
   that are also affected by the ASCII mode switch).  We believe this
   change in the ABI is innocent enough not to break existing
   applications (it only affects the S/MIME backend on certain
   operations).

 * The reference manual now includes the specification of "The GnuPG
   UI Server protocol".

 * A new function gpgme_cancel_async can be used to asynchronously
   cancel any pending operation at any time, from any thread.

 * Interface changes relative to the 1.1.6 release:
