No GTK+ 2.6 in GNOME 2.8



It looks like GNOME 2.8 will not use a GTK+ 2.6, so we will not have any
new GTK+ API to wrap in the GNOME Platform Bindings 2.8. That makes
things easy for us.

However, you might want to add some new API in your bindings anyway. For
instance, maybe you forgot to wrap something, or you want to add
improved versions of some methods. But you can't add API in your stable
versions. Hmm, this is awkward, but hopefully you will not need to add
much API if there is no new GTK+ API. And the perl bindings 

Possible solutions if you need to add API to your GTK+ bindings during
GNOME 2.8:
1. I could allow you to add it, just this once. But once you had
released it in a tarball you would not be able to change it. I mean,
there could be no unstable releases of your GTK+ binding, because you
can't use the 2.5.x numbers to show that they are unstable.
 
2. Other ideas?
