I understand that dropping support for very old GTK+ releases is
reasonable. But please do not drop support for GTK+ 2! Desktops like
Mate and Xfce became quite popular meanwhile, and too many apps got
forked already. One united community of GTK2 and GTK3 users is more
beneficial for EasyTAG.

So please shout out loud before you actually drop GTK+ 2 support!
I bet you will get enough help then.

And thank you for 2.1.8! I hope I have time soon to upgrade.
