We're lagging a bit behind gtk+ 1.1. We're quite up to date with gtk+
1.0.

By "a bit", I mean that between 10 and 15% (this is just an educated
guess) of the API is missing. It's already very useable, IMHO.

There are also a few code samples rewritten from the gtk+ tutorial in
gtk--/examples/tutorial. More will come later.

It's quite possible that we do, thank you for you wishes.
