No, it was not. It was "ETK is better suited to our needs, and the percentage
of people it does not cover is small".
I feel strongly that the emotions got a bit out of control and that the
official line really is as Ira suggested. In fact, I should quote Ira's
reply in my blog as I think it really is a more accurate representation of our
intention.
We really do want to provide choice and not force developers into one toolkit
or another. If we fail to get that point across, or if we fail to properly
support that choice, please call us on that. It is not our intention.
What's wrong with RTL support in GTK?
Nothing. Read this thread again. It's ETK that has no BiDi support.
