[Glade-devel] Glade 3 development

[bighead users sourceforge net (Archit Baweja)]

Hey

I haven't worked on it for almost 10months now. Anyway I think on however
I got on with it, the code seems to be on my code on my computer in India and
now I'm in Philadelphia, so its a slight problem ;-)

I'll see if I can get my mom to do a "cvs diff -u", but thats possible
only if the local "computer fixer" didn't fuck up my linux partition when 
reinstalling windows on my home computer in India =D

I'll check
Archit
