	Adrian, this is excellent news!  Quick question: do you expect both
gtkextra an gtkextra-2 will be ready at the same time?

	It will be several weeks before I can get back to my project that uses
gtkextra-2, but I will definitely do some testing at that point and let
you know if I find any issues.

	Thanks!

Regards,
Al
