1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

AFAIK it will only be GTK1.x due to the fact that it only relies on GDK and clib, while
GTK2 has much longer list of demands (and some of them would be really hard to port).

@chris

Well hnl_dk told me some weeks ago (in PMs) it would only be 1.x, due to
2.0 being to hard to port. Would be good news if that has changed AND if
it doesn't follow the advices layed out in my sig  :-o  :-P  :-D

"OS4-only" doesn't really mean anything when we aretalking bout GPLed SW.
