This release is under the LGPL (since Pango is required and is under the LGPL). It has support for vertical text, support for markers, justified text support, a new bitmap cache to avoid recreating (and leaking) Cairo surfaces, and a new tiger_renderer_is_dirty function to optimize away unnecessary rendering. Internal caching can now be turned on and off. Uninstalled PC files now link against static libraries rather than libtool ones.
