> Next it is questions about bindings. Refering to document *GNOME 1.0 Library Roadmap* from GNOME web site, one can see there are several GNOME libraries.

Note that GNOME 1.0 is already almost obsolete. We should target for
GNOME 2.0 at this stage (which includes bonobo, oaf, ...)

> But how about libaudiofile, libesd, libgnome, libgnomeui, libgnorba, libxml and libhttp? Are there bindings for thouse libraries also?

libgnomeui will also be bound in GtkAda. Next version of GtkAda will
contain raw bindings for most widgets included in libgnomeui. Raw bindings
means that most functions and widgets will be bound, but with no or
little testing.

Concerning libgnorba, the alternative is to use AdaBroker instead.

It would be nice to have people volunteering for the remaining pieces (and
for testing/enhancing the upcoming gnomeui bindings).
