Hi Vincent,

The API in the bindings suite covers the platform API. This has to be
clear to ISD/ISV and we don't want to compromise this message. Please
don't consider Gtk# only, but the platform (with the bindings) as a
whole.
It's not about additional guarantees. It might require more work on your
part (but is it so much more work?), packagers are certainly used to
such splittings and users won't see a difference 99% of the time.
If Mike were starting from scratch here, this would be great. But there
are already users of these bindings and breaking them up would
effectively break ABI for existing users. Gtk# already has its own
stability guarantees.
