Hello!
Spoke to Laney and Ricotz on IRC. There might be some very vague interest
in keeping gnome-desktop-sharp2 alive, thus I created the attached patch
which someone will need to pick up if they really are interested.
Note that this does not solve the existing RC bugs on gnome-desktop-sharp2
but those can be handled separately. No reason to entangle those issues
with the gtkhtml3.14 removal.
The attached patch would be an alternative way to close this bug report
and also take down all the bug reports marked as blockers for this
(for now atleast).
The bar is now set very low for anyone to show they actually want to
keep the c# bindings afloat.
Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
