Re: GTK+ web site

Thank you for the reply. Gnomefiles is back for months now btw, and OSNews 
has worked on it to make sure it's up and running properly. I would 
appreciate it if you could put back the link in the GTK.org page! :)

As for the source code of the site, if the site was to go down for some 
reason, I would just give the code+data away so you can host it.

thanks!
Eugenia
