	It depends rather ... I wouldn't invest a fortune in time and
effort in getting gnumeric to play ball with the obscure interfaces in
bonobo 1.0 - such as cut and paste, etc.

	Just have a look at the new IDL - it's a lot cleaner, and it will
show you what changed ... Of course, for simple, rectangular sheet objects
such as graphs there is nothing too drasticaly wrong with bonobo 1.0, and
not much changes to bonobo 2.0 [ except at the thin interface layer ].

	So ...

	HTH,

		Michael.
