the only definitiely decided plan/roadmap information we have so far is
summarized under topic (3) of the meeting minutes from FOSDEM:
  http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2007-March/msg00001.html
   (Minutes of the GTK+ meeting at FOSDEM)

that is: "be feature complete during mid-May and release mid-June after
          a stabilization phase of one month."

anything beyond that is probably going to be discussed/decided during GUADEC:
  http://guadec.org/node/596   (GTK+ State of the Union)
  http://guadec.org/node/615   (Gtk+ 3.0: "Why and why not would we want it?")
we might also have another Gtk+ BOF or so there, similar to FOSDEM.
