gtk2-perl currently plans to have 2.4.0 bindings ready as soon as we get our hands on a 2.4.0 tarball; we have experimental support for 2.3.0 already. i am talking to the other developers about whether we think we can have things ready by this date.

a practical problem: many particular APIs don't make sense until you see code that uses them, so you can figure out how they should be bound. is there sufficient example code for all of the core libraries, especially the brand new bits in cvs? where should we look?

we do not currently have bindings for all of the core libraries, but we do have a significant portion of them bound. what subsets would be omittable, and all that sort of thing? it would be nice to have at least the base of gtk2-perl get the wide distribution of being part of gnome, so that we'll have a larger user base for testing and recruiting, in order to pull more complete stuff together by 2.8.0.
