        I think the larger, and less useful the API we support - the
greater the maintenance / documentation headache we are going to have in   
the future. I'm all for pruning these files [ and making libgnome even    
thinner ... ].

        Anyone else ? - Jacob, where was your analysis of the usefulness
of each of the gnome-libs files ? perhaps we can do some large scale
broken API culling ?
 
        Regards,
  
                Michael.
