Guile Gtk is a Guile interface to the Gtk graphical user interface
libraries.  Version 2.0 is now available from

        ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guile-gtk/guile-gtk-2.0.tar.gz

It should hit the mirrors soon.  A great many sites around the world
mirror ftp.gnu.org, please use one near you.  For a full list see

        http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html

This release is a major upgrade,

        * Now wrapping Gtk 2 series

Guile-Gtk was previously wrapping Gtk 1.2.  There are some
incompatible changes between Gtk 1.2 and Gtk 2, Guile-Gtk has simply
adopted the new style wherever applicable, so Guile-Gtk programs will
need to be reviewed.

If you've got an old 8-bit display then you may already have been
unpleasantly surprised by the breakage introduced there in Gtk 2.8.
This of course affects Guile Gtk programs upgrading too.  A possible
workaround is at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4945

The Guile Gtk home page is

        http://www.gnu.org/software/guile-gtk/

and there's a mailing list

        http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-gtk-general/

Please send all bug reports and comments to the list.
