[Gtk-sharp-list] Toolbar.AppendItem is obsolete and has been replaced by ToolItem API

[Daniel Morgan]

I'm using mono 1.1.8/gtk# 1.9.5/gtk+ 2.6  on Windows.

How do you use the UIManager API?

Is there is a Mono/GTK# Guide for Upgrading our apps from a Mono 
1.0.x/gtk# 1.0.x/gtk+ 2.2 API to a Mono 1.1.x/gtk# 1.9.x/gtk+ 2.6 API?

What did the developers working on MonoDevelop do?
