i guess we realized this and this is how i think we should continue.

first we should focus on the major libraries, think glib2, pango and
gtk+2. meanwhile/later we should get the other "minor" libraries
updated/imported. after this is done we should finish it off with the
client/desktop stuff.

anyone agrees?
