Hi,
As I'm a beginner in GTK and GTK# I will just answer to the first and 
the two last questions :-)  !

1) TreeView : At the beginning I find kind complex the TreewView but now 
I'm more confident with I find it powerful. Miss some relations with the 
DataTable and DataSet (or maybe it exists but haven't see it) ...

2) Missing will be equivalent to Windows.Forms.DataGrid but I'm not sure 
there is something equivalent in GTK ... and DataBindings

3) Docs&Training : As a complete beginner, I miss some really basic 
example (like using the ListStore for filling combo) or at least 
somewhere to get/set them .... (Somethings about "Come from Forms to Gtk 
...")

That's is for me. I still learning so questions will come later !

One question : In last setup, it is not the last version of Gtk# ? 
Always the 1.0 ...

Good luck and congratulations for Mono.
