I have no plans to contribute to gtk & glib.  I will continue to work
on gnome2.  I vote pro gdk/pixbuf if zou are going to maintain and
contribute it.

I cannot get GConf to work properly, there is an access violation in
ntdll.dll and I get a popup which tells me 'access denied' (error
code 5).

If you get Gconf up and running with the lock patches from Steve, that
would be great (if you ask me we could also disable locking).
Unfortunately, I get the same error when I compile no without the
patches from Steve and it is not possible to use gdb to track this
down.  I used depends profiler from sysinternals to see where the
error happens.  It is triggered when the glib thread dll is loaded.
So there is a bug in gthread or in the cgwin threads or in windows;)

Cool!

Yaakov and me have the most important packages ready for release, but we
need to have GConf.  I could send you my libbonobo packages if you
need them.
