Gabriel 0.1, "Fly Gabriel Fly" released

Hello everyone!
   I am pleased to announce the first release of Gabriel. Gabriel is a
client-server application that allows you to create D-Bus connections
on a remote machine over a secure (SSH) channel. The project is the
first step towards the GOD (Gstreamer On-Demand) project, which would
allow applications to create multimedia pipelines (or parts of the
pipeline) on a remote machine. Nonetheless, Gabriel can be used by
other projects as well.

GLib 2.12.7 released

GLib 2.12.7 is now available for download at:

 ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/glib/2.12/
 http://download.gnome.org/sources/glib/2.12/

GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projects
such as GTK+ and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C,

an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system.

More information about GLib is available at:

 http://www.gtk.org/

An installation guide for the GTK+ libraries, including GLib, can
be found at:

 http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-building.html

GTK+ 2.10.7 released

GTK+ 2.10.7 is now available for download at:

 ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.10/
 http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gtk+/2.10/

gtk+-2.10.7.tar.bz2   md5sum: acb0c10be4495928db68d2279e34f20c
gtk+-2.20.7.tar.gz    md5sum: 4b6221c15ae3e9903d17102b731dcd2d

This is a bugfix release in the 2.10.x series.

What is GTK+
============

GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user
interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for
projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application
suites.

GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of
languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and
Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides
an effective method of rapid application development.

GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the
licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all
developers, including those developing proprietary software, without
any license fees or royalties. 

Where to get more information about GTK+

As an end gtk+ user I just want to know which of the two
gtk+2.8.20 <-> 2.10.7 is less buggy.

And which of them has less memory leaks.

Thanks,
  Sergei.

Indeed 2.10.7.  The impressive list of bugs you saw has only been fixed
in 2.10.7.  Another set fixed in 2.10.6.  Same for 2.10.5, ...  None of
them fixed in 2.8.x.

This idea of thinking about newer series as buggier versions is
fundamentally bogus.  The way you should be thinking about 2.10 is 2.8
plus some new functionality plus lots of bug fixes.  It typically is the
case that if you don't use the new functionality, it's just added value,
not many bugs introduced, etc.  Gtk+ 2.6 vs 2.6 was of course different,
because of moving to cairo.

> And which of them has less memory leaks.

Is Gtk+ known for being leaky?  2.10 has more fixes than 2.8, so for the
same usage, it should be 2.10 that doesn't have more memory leaks.
