GTK+ 2.14 will be released in a few days. This seems like a good time to send out an update on the GTK+ 3 plans. Once the 2.14 release has happened, we will branch off a 2.90 branch. Development towards 2.16 will proceed on trunk, in parallel to the 2.90 development. The goal is to have a 2.16 release by next summer (traditionally targeting Guadec). The following features are already under development and will likely land in 2.16: - support for icons in entries - better handling of invisible characters - flippable boxes, separators, etc - resolution independence/font scaling - complete offscreen window support - extended layout (width-for-height) - a tool palette widget - a simple list api The 2.90 release will be feature-wise equivalent to 2.16, with structure contents being completely sealed and deprecated 2.x interfaces removed. 2.90 will be installable in parallel with 2.16. After the 2.16/2.90 releases, GTK+ 2.x will continue to be supported by bug-fix releases on the 2.16 branch, while the 2.90 branch will move ahead with new feature development, leading to a GTK+ 3 release further down the road. For more details on the work towards 2.90 and beyond, see http://live.gnome.org/GTK+/3.0/Tasks. We will also add more GTK+ 3 information to the GTK+ website (www.gtk.org) in the coming weeks.
