Gtk2::Ex started out as a name space for perl only modules, but after further thought and discussion it made sense that anything that's not part of the core gtk+ package should be bound there. so whether it's perl-only, perl-xs, or perl-xs-c it goes in Gtk2::Ex if it's not in gtk+. later, -rm _______________________________________________ gtk-perl-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list
