GTK+ 3.6.4 is bug fixing to perfection

This post was made with another stylesheet and it might be messed up!

GTK_iconGTK+ 3.6.4 was released a few hours ago with only one bug fix. Does this mean that developers feel that the 3.6 branch has reached perfection, or is it that all hands are working on the exciting performance improvements that the 3.8 release will bring?

Combined with the many bug fixes of the 3.6.3 release, this new version of GTK+ shows that this may be the last 3.6 we will see.

GTK+, or the GIMP Toolkit, 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. GNOME is based on GTK+, meaning that programs native to GNOME use GTK+.

    Neither. :)

    It’s that version 3.6.3 introduced a crash on some applications and a new version was released to fix that.

    Kinda OT but when is the approx time when we would see Wayland on most Linux distros?
