Are you saying I should go over to IRC? I did look at the resources page, and I did see links to programs made with PHP-GTK, but I'm talking about PHP-GTK itself. Also, the site itself needs a design upgrade to match up as a blue version of php.net. Anyone visiting will see what gtk.php.net looks like now and think that it is slightly outdated. I will go rescan the Resources page. > On Jun 19, 2015, at 6:14 PM, Madeleine D. <chezmmd@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Gage - > > You need to go out the chat channel for this project.
