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

How is that possible? If Gtk# changes its API then your application won't be able to use the API that it existed when the application was compiled? No VM can remove the need for the API. Or does mono do some equivalent of static linking?
