Schedule:

Note that those rules do not guarantee 100% API coverage, but they do
guarantee API/ABI stability.

At the moment, it's just gtkmm (C++) and gtk2-perl (Perl):

Expect others in the GNOME 2.8 schedule. I really think that Python should
be in 2.6 too, and others if they can do it. For 2.6, they have until
December 22nd to give us the list of modules that they want to be put in the
release set. Gtk# say they will do it unofficially and hope to be in 2.8.

If you have questions about the GNOME Platform Bindings release set please
send email to language-bindings@gnome.org. CC release-team@gnome.org if you
want to appeal to a higher power. This might be reorganized a bit in future.

Re: GNOME Platform Bindings release set

I agree, Python should be there definitely, there are many py-gtk apps out there.

Also, it would be great if a pre-1.0 version of C# and Mono was there too. It is not like it will break any binary compatibility for post-1.0, so it won't make any real damage if a pre-1.0 is included on 2.6 instead of waiting all the way to 2.8.

Get this thing going Murray, this is cool stuff and will ultimately help Gnome a lot.
