The "wizards" behind MonoDevelop are the primary contributors to the Gtk# distribution for mac. As has been described by others, Gtk# on the mac is mostly limited by Gtk+ on the mac, which is a work in progress and is improving steadily. If you want it to improve faster and be more "well-cared for", we would welcome your contributions. My understanding is that we are shipping a custom patched gtk+ in our mac installer. Whether it improved in 2.4.3 and just wasn't documented in the release notes is not something I can speak to confidently. Perhaps Michael Hutchinson can comment on that. Gtk# on the mac is not rotting. It is important to many people. Unfortunately, there are a considerably larger number of people who want Gtk# to work on mac than there are people who have been willing to contribute anything to make it work. -- Mike Kestner <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Gtk-sharp-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/gtk-sharp-list
