Yes, start up Glade and load your project in libglade format.

Hit CNTL+P (this is also available in the menus) to pop up
the project properties dialog.

Choose GtkBuilder format... this will cause the project to
convert... after this point you should check that all your
widgets are still in place, some of them may have changed
types or be setup differently in GtkBuilder format.

Then save it in GtkBuilder format and move on.

For best results use Glade 3.8, also consider using
Glade 3.10, GTK+3 and pygobject for the python bindings.

Cheers,
         -Tristan

Please remember to 'reply-all' and keep the mailing list on CC, thanks.
