  1. Backward compability. by Lussarn · · Score: 3, Interesting
    Does anybody know about backward compability?


    I know a couple of widgets from gtk1.2 is deprecated, CList is one of them. But will gnome 2 also include gtk1.2 or only gtk2.0.


    And, does deprecated in the gtk2.0 case mean "not there" or "could disapear in the future"?
