The project only covers some small and usually unmaintained libs. They will still be standalone even as part of GTK. The main GNOME part will not be merged. Kind regards, Christoph
According to http://live.gnome.org/ProjectRidley there will be 10 bugged libs subsumed into GTK:
libgnome libgnomeui libgnomeprint22 libgnomeprintui22 libglade libgnomecanvas libegg libeel gtkglext libsexyIf GTK was not part of the Gnome Foundation the fact is that this wouldn't be happening at all. GTK has been successful up to this point but I really don't see this as advancement due to the new management. Rather, it appears more like a method to cover past mistakes underneath a successful toolkit.
