Ah, OK, thanks Murray, I missed that when writing the new pages.

The list we have there is much more comprehensive than the language bindings information on live.gnome.org. I think it probably makes sense to make the distinction about which bindings are provided in GNOME and updated regularly (with a link to the live.gnome.org pages) as well as the other language bindings available. I will update the information about the bindings following the release schedule too - obviously this only applies to bindings we ship with the platform, not ALL bindings listed on the features page. > > But I still think that nobody will ever find this list again where it > is hidden at the end of a large page. I think this point is irrelevant. I don't think we should have a separate link (i.e. in the link menu at the top of the page) for language bindings because there isn't enough space and it isn't as important as some of the other things we could have on there. To me, it is obvious that language bindings would be on the features page if at all. If people want to find that information they will, I really don't think you have to go out of your way to make it more accessible. I am thinking about first time visitors looking to use the site, if they are really interested, they are most likely to go to the Features page and read everything they can achieve with this toolkit. -- Regards, Martyn _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
