Re: New Bindings modules (python)

Sure, but I can only answer for pygtk
(gobject,atk,pango,gdk/gtk,libglade) and not for gnome-python which is
Gustavo Carneiros area these days. I've only done the releases.

I guess I can do PyORBit releases too if required.

pygtk: 
  gobject
  atk
  pango
  gtk
  libglade

gnome-python:
  libbonobo
  libbonoboui
  gconf
  libpanelapplet
  libgnomecanvas
  libgnome
  libgnomeui
  nautilus
  gnome-vfs
  libart_lgpl
  libgnomeprint
  libgnomeprintui
  gtkhtml2

pyorbit:
  ORBit2

There exists python bindings for libxml2, libxslt and vte, but they are
included upstream. I think there are bindings for gstreamer and
gtksourceview but they are available from other places.

I haven't heard of libwnck bindings.

For bonobo API stability issues, please contact Gustavo (putting him on
CC)

I guess including libgnomeprint[ui] in the tarball is still a good idea,
but I'm all in favour of removing gtkhtml2.
