Well, I'm a community member, and that's what I plan to do, but it's going to be a beta source release (see my previous mail on that thread). I happen to have upload rights to http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gtk-sharp, so it's going to be hosted at the right place. > Then others can create the preview windows installer, RPMs, and DEBs from > it, and mac installer.

Xamarin is a company that was created to provide tools to develop iOS and Android apps, so they need to care about their customers. But that doesn't mean what they do doesn't benefit all Mono and GTK# users. For example, a bugfix was recently merged into GTK#, contributed by Michael Hutchinson, a Xamarin employee: https://github.com/mono/gtk-sharp/pull/51 It fixes a long-standing bug in GTK#, and I think he worked on it as part of his job on MonoDevelop. > A lack of Gtk# 3.0 for Gtk+ 3.0 was the main reason Banshee was not included > in the default install of the latest Ubuntu. As a Banshee maintainer, I can tell you that it was one of the reasons, but it was not the only reason, by far. > On Oct 12, 2012, at 7:44 PM, Daniel Hughes <[email protected]> wrote: > > When can we expect a GTK# 3 release? > > This is important to many mono application developers and packagers such as > myself so that we can plan our migrations. > > http://www.mono-project.com/GtkSharpPlan appears to be years our of date. > > GTK+ 3 itself was released years ago. > > Cheers, > Daniel Hughes _______________________________________________ Gtk-sharp-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/gtk-sharp-list
