/me looks incredulous at most of the people around him.
why are people doing c++ via c and gnome vs kde conversations?

there is no way on earth that i'd be part of the kde devel 
team if not for the nice qt api's. no chance will i be ever
be coding c++/stl, glib on the other hand actually has a 
sane enough api size.

therefore, (in my eyes)
glib *is* the lowest common denominator. 
there is no other choice.

you seriously believe that gnome could use c++/qt as its
base?, sure, if a subset of qt was released by trolltech
then maybe this would be possible. but currently its
just completely unreasonable.

mvg,
Alex
