I would vote for setting 2.8 as a base for the 2.0 release, and then switching to 2.10 when we release 2.1. The reasoning here is that 2.8 is what is considered to be "stable" and will be around for a long time to come, while 2.10 is still hot off the oven; it would be wise to wait a while for it to settle down. In any case, there is no reason for us to stick to 2.6 anymore. Also, migrating to 2.8 shouldn't take much effort; the only major change that could be of trouble is Cairo support. The other changes are pretty trivial and should not be difficult to incorporate.

Pango hasn't even been touched yet. And then we have the ATK stuff. Adding Cairo support on top of that is not trivial IMO. I think one of the keys to getting more help (and getting Gtk+2.10 implemented) is to generate interest and a stable release will definitely go a long way to that end. I vote (not that my vote counts for much since I write C code like a 5 year old :) ) to finish what has been started and then pile more work on after that. If we keep pushing the target out, we will never hit a stable release. Scott
