Re: API Freeze Schedule and outstanding API bugs

["Mark Murnane" <Mark Murnane Sun com>]

Owen,

Just a heads up, but some changes for GTK+ will need to be done as part of the 64-bit cleaning effort.  I'll file a bug for this later.  We were waiting to get the changes into glib first so that we could proceed from a definite base.

I'm not sure what changes might need to be made to pango, but there may be some there too.

Thanks,

Mark
