Cimi:

That's not an issue, the series (major-minor number) is not going to be
bumped for that cycle, so the GTK+ patch doesn't need to be updated for
each release in the 0.1 series.

Sébastien:

>From a technical point of view, I think that the clean way, which makes
it potentially acceptable upstream, is to add that new widget directly
inside GTK+ and add new symbols in GtkScrolledWindow to choose the
scrollbar type to be used. But we've done that using a dynamically
loaded module for this cycle because it reduces the GTK+ library size
making it easier to fit on the CD, and it simplifies updating the
ayatana-scrollbar library without implying a GTK+ update. Depending on
the feedback, it will be easy to convert it to the clean way for
Natty+1.

I'll update the patch adding the ubuntu prefix.
