Hi Mike, > I notice you've been making some commits on g-golf. How's the state of the > project?
Yes, I am actively working on it, and made good progress, but it is, from a user point of view, unusable still: although everything that 'is there' is working, it still misses some fundamental pieces of the puzzle, and those will likely take me a few more months ... > I've been playing with GObject from the other (guile-gi) codebase, and > it is a bit of a nightmare.

Ah, I currently recommend those who ask 'how can I use 'modern' gnome from guile ...' to use guile-gi :), it is the only working GI binding we have at the moment, and I didn't think its code base was 'that bad', at the contrary ... It also seemed to me you were reusing quite a lot of code from pygobject, so I thought you were happy with the design and the coding ... Also, I did see Jan made some very good comment about it recently, and I was pleased to see you (both) were able to collaborate and patch it so fast ... so, it seems it's working quite well ... Anyway, G-Golf is 'on its way', but it will take a bit of time still before it's 'really' usable ... and I thought that you would still develop and maintain guile-gi anyway, you invested quite a lot in it ...
