Berlin DX Hackfest / Day 2

the second day of the hackfest had a pretty big discussion on the roadmap for GTK+.

thanks to Matthias Clasen, we had a list of things to discuss prior to the start of the hackfest, even if Matthias himself would not be present:

• filling the gaps between the GNOME HIG and the GTK+ API needed to implement it
• a better cross-platform story for tool kit maintainers and application developers
• touch support
• scene graph to replace Clutter
• documentation
• improving the relationship of the tool kit with Glade
• required clean ups for GTK+ 4

during the afternoon we managed to go through the first bullet point of the list, but we made really good progress on it, and we managed to assign each sub-issue to a prospective owner that is going to be in charge of it.

hopefully, we’re going to go through the other points during the rest of the hackfest much more quickly.
