Thanks for the offer but don't worry, I'll get there: I've spent already
some time downloading Gnome 2 RC1 tarballs (hmm, only 68MB??) and tried
garnome. I've already several problems to solve but I'll try the garnome
list.

All right! As Rodrigo also suggested the libgda API doc, I'll go for it.

So, I've checked out libgda from CVS. Any recommendations/preferences on how
to proceed (which files are more stable, are more important to start,...)?
Mind you, I'm not familiar with libgda, so talk slowly :-), but it might
also be good for the documentation.

Also, I'm about to update my cygwin installation and I'll try it
