I sent around an e-mail some days ago asking for new widgets,
made from scratch or compound widgets, without answer. I know
that everybody can do its own widgets (and it's a lot of fun),
but sometimes it's too much effort, taking into account that you
can repeat something already done. I would like to ask whether
there is some place a list of gtk+ (or gtk--) widgets made by
people that could be used by anyone. If not, I'm willing to do it
somewhere in my WWW homepage.
