Speaking only for myself, I arrived at the 1.2 branch because I wanted to write a program, and that stuff was what seemed to work. But gtk 1.2 is a bit of a dead end unfortunately. I'd like to see the main guile-gtk support basically whatever is the current gtk. Perhaps with some conditionals to support a few past versions, if that's of interest and if it's not too hard. > So we have (gnome gobject), That's the glib gobject I take it. Perhaps glib should have an independent existance (glib glib), (glib gobject), etc. (But within one project. I think all in one would be easiest for development, mainly since I think each higher interface is going to need to know a good deal about how the lower ones are implemented, and there's probably a good amount of common stuff anyway.)
