+Vala is a programming language that aims to bring modern programming
+language features to GNOME developers without imposing any additional
+runtime requirements and without using a different ABI compared to
+applications and libraries written in C.
+
+valac, the Vala compiler, is a self-hosting compiler that translates
+Vala source code into C source and header files. It uses the GObject
+type system to create classes and interfaces declared in the Vala source
+code.
+
+This package contains the old 0.12 release.
