Otherwise, Haskell bindings look as almost-abandoned covering > only up to 2.10 and with partial support of 2.12. When we binding new module that gtk2hs haven't exist, we won't binding `deprecated` functions that comment in Gtk+ API.

Thanks, just send us patch! :) If you occur some problem when binding, just post here, we will help you. > > Otoh, I unsubscribed (by mistake) from the list and wasm't aware of > Axel's 'Creating new bindings' post and therefore sent my 'roadmap' > post. Because Axel fix ApiGen tools under directory "gtk2hs/tools/apiGen/", ApiGen will download newest Gtk+ source code then generate Haskell binding code automatically, you just copy file (unpack from http://www.di.ens.fr/~simona/gtk-modules.tgz) to right path, then add path to Makefile.am, then you can run `make` for test. Example, i binding new module `Graphics.UI.Gtk.Windows.Invisible`, i copy Invisible.chs.pp to `gtk2hs/gtk/Graphics/UI/Gtk/Windows/Invisible.chs.pp`, then i add gtk/Graphics/UI/Gtk/Windows/Invisible.chs.pp \ To Makefile.am Then `make` again. That's all, you don't need do anything, so easy! Of course, ApiGen maybe generate wrong code for difficult function, so you need modified those binding code manually, and you need test those functions after you binding it. BTW, Axel, you need post your "Create new bindings" to gtk2hs homepage, and not just gtk2hs-devel list, then will many haskellers help us. > > Still, it would be nice to update web-site with the clear info about > the curent status of binding along with some roadmap for future > release(s) and plans for future improvements etc. That's good, infact gtk2hs will be perfect if have many people help us binding and test new code, because ApiGen generate most code automatically, very easy. > > Andy> GTK-3.0 stable enough? > Andy> If so, we will try update to Gtk-3.0. > > Well, 2.20 will be released soon, and the next one can evolve into 3.0. Yeah, we will try to update-to stable version of Gtk+.
