Is there a chance that this could be folded into the Glib reference
docs?  The license for those is in glib/docs/reference/COPYING.  I'm not
sure if it is the FDL or not.

At least one other person is working on GObject documentation; look for
Ryan McDougall's mails in the gtk-devel-list archive.  Maybe it would be
good to merge these two manuals together, and stick them into the Glib
docs?
