Jesper,

Just to echo Michael's comments, libsigc++ is used by gtkmm and won't
be going anywhere for a long long time.

Although, I did want to point out that if you're already using boost,
you might also want to check out their functor packages.  The two
systems are almost identical ( which is on purpose IIRC ), but if
you're already using other boost packages, that might make more sense.

HTH,
Paul Davis
