I am happy with libglade's API, and could probably put out a stable 
release soon.  The remaining issues are not API related (finding 
properties that should be supported but aren't).  The documentation 
could also do with some finishing touches.  Unless these issues are 
considered showstoppers, I could make a 2.0 release of libglade anytime now.
