I am actually very excited about this direction for Gtk. If Qt is the stable and serious cross-platform UI library for corporate stuff, why not let GTK be the awesome experimental UI library that breaks everything every 6 months, and keeps pushing the limits on what a free software UI can be? I'm a very happy Gnome 3 user, and I hope they keep pushing to build a usable, simple and pretty user experience, despite the endless stream of this kind of grumpy know-it-all attacks.
Hey, if it was so easy to design an API that is "thought through properly", show us the spec already - there are plenty of hackers around to build it. If it actually worked like that.
- xg15 10y agoHaving a more "experimental" project seems like a good idea. But if the API breaks all 6 months, I think it's hard to use such a library unlike your project is a "show HN" style experiment as well that is expected to live only a few months.
