This is the another bug fix release in the stable 3.0 series, focusing
largely on improvements in theming.

============

GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user
interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for
projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application
suites.

GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of
languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and
Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides
an effective method of rapid application development.

GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the
licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all
developers, including those developing proprietary software, without
any license fees or royalties.

Where to get more information about GTK+
========================================

Information about GTK+ including links to documentation can be
found at:

 http://www.gtk.org/

An installation guide for GTK+ 3 is found at:

 http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk3/3.0/gtk-building.html

Common questions:

 http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk3/3.0/gtk-question-index.html

GTK+ 3 is a major new version of GTK+, changing the ABI and
the API compared to GTK+ 2.x. This means that GTK+ 2.x applications
will need some adjustments before they can be used with GTK+ 3.
The migration guide at

 http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk3/3.0/migrating.html

gives an overview of what is involved in porting to GTK+ 3.
