as I said here:

  http://log.emmanuelebassi.net/archives/2008/03/berlin3/

the choice is between either to get one of the current canvases and give
it "the gtk+ seal of approval" or completely reimplement it inside gtk.

there are various canvases available:

  http://live.gnome.org/ProjectRidley/CanvasOverview

each with its own strengths and disadvantages. if you plan on relying on
hardware acceleration, and you don't plan on embedding gtk+ widgets (not
yet, at least), the Clutter:

  http://www.clutter-project.org

might be a good choice.

if you're worried about a dependency might disappear you can import it
straight inside your project, by the way; it's a maintenance burden, but
if you are actively maintaining a project then you shouldn't worry about
dependencies disappearing.

ciao,
 Emmanuele.
