Many people do a lot of rewriting when they port, which I would consider a mistake. Modulo the documented issues in the ref. manual (http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-changes-2-0.html) not much should _break_ when you just rebuild with 2.0. However, many people rewrite GtkCTree code to use GtkTreeView, which can be a lot of work, for example. Such rewrites are optional and can be done in a later phase after the initial port. There's often a better way to do something with 2.0 than there was with 1.2, but the old way typically still works. Havoc
