[Gtk-sharp-list] Gtk# RPM ETA?

[Charles Iliya Krempeaux]

Hello,

Well, if anyone is on the Mandrake Club here.  I've added Gtk#
to the "RPM Voting" section.

If you want it... go vote for it.  (And hopefully someone with
the skill to do so, will create it.)  Just search for "Gtk#".

A direct link to it is:

See ya
