news 28 Posted May 7, 2010 GTK+ 2.21.0 is now available for download at: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/2.21/ http://download.gnome.org/sources/gtk+/2.21/ sha256 sums: 2f5e3f9fd50de4ac529558126a12983756d62572959cd0d6cb1dff1efca951e2 gtk +-2.21.0.tar.bz2 a10ed081d3ab21bd62c14426ee00d1f7f4f1e6f3963b54182a79b6ccb9116b6d gtk +-2.21.0.tar.gz This is the first development release leading toward 2.22. Notes: * GTK+ 2.22 is planned to be the last stable GTK+ 2.x release, to be released in parallel with GTK+ 3. It will not receive major feature work beyond API additions that are required to facilitate porting to GTK+ 3. * Installing this version will overwrite your existing copy of GTK+ 2.20. If you have problems, you'll need to reinstall GTK+ 2.20. * GTK+ 2.22 will be source and binary compatible with the GTK+ 2.20 series; however, the new API additions are not yet finalized, so there may be incompatibilities between this release and the final 2.22 release. * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org. What is GTK+ ============ GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application suites. GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides an effective method of rapid application development. GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all developers, including those developing proprietary software, without any license fees or royalties.
