Hi Martin,
For dialogs, there will be next to no difference (if at all) between the
GTK+ and GNOME versions. In fact, many of the gnome/ subtrees (or their
contents) will be going away. GNOME specific bits, where necessary and
appropriate, will be housed in unix/ hiding behind #ifdef HAVE_GNOME
logic.
Why is a good chunk of the GNOME port going away? Most of the
GNOME-specific stuff that we used has been deprecated and pushed up into
GTK+ proper (and improved upon there). Specifically, this relates to
GnomeDialogs and stock buttons/icons. We will still have our GNOME port.
I plan on still using Gnome-Print, a Bonobo-based XAP_App/AP_App, GConf
for our preferences, GAL, EEL, ... all where appropriate.
Hope this clears things up.
Dom
