Berlin/1

day two of the gtk+ hackfest.

yesterday was devoted to the Imendio vision of a better toolkit, and how to get out of the hole we dug for ourselves with the current API/ABI contract – but others have written about it better than I could possibly do.

today was introspection day; Johan Dahlin showed the current state of the GObject introspection code by using a Vala widget, subclassing a GtkDrawingArea, from a Perl script — which was beyond cool. kudos to everyone that has been working on it.

today it’s also six years since the gtk+ 2.0.0 release, so happy birthday gtk+ 2.x!
