When GTK+ 2.0 was released six years ago, we were already too busy with the rest of the rewriting code-that-worked to do it. Two years and nine days, exactly, between the first commit to the GTK2 branch and the first GTK2 release after 497 commits. And we never came to replace the GtkCtrees because a) they work and b) we didn't have the time/motivation. > The tooltips should be easy to port, the tree and list widgets less > so, which is why it should have started quite some time ago... and the GtkItemFactory are huge to port too. And probably there is more; I've just looked at the first batch of compilation errors using GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED. As Mathias said, a libgtk-legacy (or -compat or whatever) seems a good idea and (in my application developer's opinion) least that can be done for the users of the GTK+ lib. There are 2017 applications on http://gnomefiles.org/ ; how many of these projects have the available manpower to rewrite their code? How many of these are projects are run by enthusiasts on their free time ? -- Colin _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
