Why are you skeptical about glib? I've been working on a OO structure
for dbmail using gobject, glib and gmime, so if there are serious
objections I'd like to know asap.
I like using glib. The only thing that's holding me back at this very
moment is the fact that glib in Debian stable is still at version 1.2,
and gmime is at a very old version.
For us, it's very important that the libraries that are obligatory (at
the moment: mysql or postgresql client libraries) are in Debian stable,
because that's what we use on (almost) all our servers.
The GMime version in Woody (current Debian stable), is very obsolete
(from what I've seen). But.. The new stable is supposed to be released
this year, isn't it?
Anyway, I think GLib can give us a nice way of making our code better
and more readable through the use of all it's various utility-functions
and structures.
cheers,
