Hmmm, 
    IMO glade-3 will not have a stable release worthy of distribution
untill at least
a few months from now (providing that things go well). gtk+-2.6 is "supposed"
to hit the field this december.

In that light, I think it would be reasonable to require gtk+-2.6 as it will be
the standard release in our timeframe.

    One thing this brings to mind (and this one might be tricky),
glade-3 will survive
alot  longer if we design it to be able to generate glade files for
more than one
version of gtk+, idealy without recompilation.

Cheers,
