Glade-Perl-Two doesn't work with Gtk2 >= 0.20 --- it still wants to use 
the old Inline bindings.  I just tried emailing Dermot at both 
addresses listed on his site.  One address came back "User Unknown", 
the other "Mailbox Inactive".  This is pretty much the same situation 
as late 2003.  I can't find any info about him after 2002 with google.  
I wonder if he's okay...

I see the same thing.  Last i recall, the hosting was donated 
(according to the site) and my emails to the webmaster (from 2003 to 
this winter) were never answered.
