GTK is a huge thing used by hundreds of unrelated projects, some of whose very big. It is a responsibility. Gnome developers basically plundered the development of GTK and now only care about their use cases. They should admit that they are irresponsible. It is bad.
- krakensden 14y agoIn defense of GTK, there is really only one person working on it, plus the occasional patch submission.
- guard-of-terra 14y agoMaybe they should focus on maintenance then instead of runaway development featuring breaking backwards compatibility and existing use cases? I understand you can't have both stability and new features with limited resources, but they should choose stability.
