there are a whole bunch of docs and api specs on http://developer.gnome.org/
i am currently running gnome2 so i will be available for a guinea pig :)
Heh - I didn't say _I_ have the time to do it. :) I've been travelling all
summer, and am just now getting back into the swing of things. The new
glib and reworked object system should really make things easier for the
lisp bindings, but I'm not sure if that is the right way to go or just
break down and do the widget stuff in raw C. The lisp bindings are cool,
but unless Gtk gets so #%!＠#!ing spiffy that we drop support for other
window systems (not likely), I don't see a lot of people adopting gtk lisp
programs for core XEmacs functionality.
Is anybody actually -running- gtk2 for useful things? I've found that 99%
of the apps out there are still strictly gtk1.
