simply that it is something we should consider seriously. That

We went through this early on in the development of the OLPC software

Hi,
gtk 2.14 has some good stuff, would be nice to start to rebase on
F10 ASAP so we don't have so much stress as with the F8 rebase.
Once we decide to do this, we'll need to talk about who would do it --

who could
