Tracked down the segfault when subclassing GtkObject wrappers in the new pygtk. I also reenabled object attributes on the wrappers defined in C without problems, so this problem looks like it is fixed. The wrapper rescue code really is evil.

I don't know what all the fuss is about the gnome steering commitee thing. The main job we are doing is doing a bit of release coordination, so things get done on time (for october gnome, Elliot did most of this work, but it is probably less stressful to have a group of people doing the work). The other stuff discussed was about starting the process of creating a gnome foundation (which should take over a lot of what steercom was set up for). Did more work on pygtk/extensionclass. It is starting to feel like the old pygtk. I am trying to track down some weird errors that are occuring when deallocating instances of python subclasses of GtkObject wrappers. I think I am the only person who has tried to do this kind of weird stuff with ExtensionClass. I think it has something to do with the evil wraper rescue code in pygtk_dealloc :( It looks like my certification of advogato pushed him up to master :)
