As per summary. Please bump it in tree, thanks in advance.

Release Notes for 0.9.0:

qtile 0.9.0, released 2015-01-20:
* !!! Dependency Changes !!!
New dependencies will need to be installed for qtile to work
- drop xpyb for xcffib (XCB bindings)
- drop py2cairo for cairocffi (Cairo bindings)
- drop PyGTK for asyncio (event loop, pangocairo bindings managed
internally)
- qtile still depends on gobject if you want to use anything that uses
dbus (e.g. the mpris widgets or the libnotify widget)
* features
- add Python 3 and pypy support (made possible by dependency changes)
- new layout for vertical monitors
- add startup_once hook, which is called exactly once per session (i.e.
it is not called when qtile is restarted via lazy.restart()). This
eliminates the need for the execute_once() function found in lots of
user configs.
- add a command for showing/hiding the bar (lazy.hide_show_bar())
- warn when a widget's dependencies cannot be imported
- make qtile.log more useful via better warnings in general, including
deprecation and various other warnings that were previously
nonexistent
- new text-polling widget super classes, which enable easy
implementation of various widgets that need to poll things outside
the event loop.
- add man pages
- large documentation update, widget/layout documentation is now
autogenerated from the docstrings
- new ImapWidget for checking imap mailboxes
* bugfixes
- change default wmname to "LG3D" (this prevents some java apps from
not working out of the box)
- all code passes flake8
- default log level is now WARNING
- all widgets now use our config framework
- windows with the "About" role float by default
- got rid of a bunch of unnecessary bare except: clauses
