don't think that this is necessarily needed... I think I figured out how to do most things in GTK, the problem is only that I don't have much time to code :( Think with a few extra hours per week we could have almost all major features in GTK relatively soon. Replacing things one by one seems more difficult to me... since I think using stuff like glade gtk gui builder) would be hard. ARUN
