[Mono-dev] Gtk# 2.x release status and thoughts on 3.0

[Daniel Morgan]

I have to agree with Miguel.  For Gtk# 3.0 (whevnever that happens), let's go with .net 2.0 profile.  Microsoft intends to be backwards-compatible with .net 2.0 for a long time.

Also, have you considered using Gtk+ introspection for Gtk# 3.0 that other Gtk+ bindings are starting to use?
