I released PyGObject 3.3.3.

The most notable changes are that you can now access methods (and other identifiers) which are Python keywords, PyGObject automatically escapes them now by appending a ‘_’. For example, you can now call myGdkWindow.raise_() or GLib.Thread.yield_() instead of having to resort to the previous workaround getattr(myGdkWindow, 'raise')().

This version also restores the deprecated get_data() and set_data() methods. They were never really meant to be used from Python programs, they can potentially mess up your program and cause crashes, and do not give you anything that regular Python object properties would not already provide in a much safer way (i. e. just write my_obj.foo = 'bar' instead of my_obj.set_data('foo', 'bar')). Apparently some software projects are using them, so they will now raise a deprecation warning and be removed for the GNOME 3.8 cycle instead.

Thanks to all contributors!
