Re: GTK not good for newbies? ( UR ALSO RESPONSIBLE)

[manu aradhya <manu_aradhya yahoo co in>]

gtk being a open source package anybody can make use
it (for qt u have to pay buddy).everybody make use of
it but no body contributes while thir work is
done.Even if you people (newbies or novice) become 
vice ,then also u are   not going to contribute
anything to gtk. why cannot you  make some (good)
documentation  about the part (of gtk) which u work.i
think it nobodies responsibities to do documentation,
wht ever documentaion done is good enough to start. it
should not be 2 much spoon feeding.i agree that to one
extent documention is not that  much good.but i think
everbody ( means gtk programmers) can contribute in
making good documentaion.
