De ontwikkelaars van The GTK+ Project hebben via een e-mail laten weten dat de eerste ontwikkelversie van de 2.15-tak van GTK+ is vrijgegeven. GTK+ is een in C geschreven toolkit voor het maken van grafische gebruikersinterfaces. De eerste 'development release' van de nieuwe tak kan vanaf deze ftp-map gedownload worden en wordt onder de GNU Lgpl 2.1-licentie beschikbaar gesteld. De release notes van GTK+ 2.0.15.0 ziet er als volgt uit:
Notes:
- This is the first development release in the 2.15 cycle. It has had only little testing and there are unfinished features and plenty of bugs in this release. It should definitively not be used in production.
- Installing this version will overwrite your existing copy of GTK+ 2.14. If you have problems, you'll need to reinstall GTK+ 2.14.
- GTK+ 2.16 will be source and binary compatible with the GTK+ 2.14 series; however, the new API additions are not yet finalized, so there may be incompatibilities between this release and the final 2.16 release. Among the API additions that are still under consideration for 2.16 are:
- 565656 Add marks to scales
- 560228 Add "action-controller" property to GtkWidgetClass
- 553573 Add orientation API to GtkBox
- 553582 Add orientation API to GtkSeparator
- 553585 Add orientation API to GtkRuler
- 553586 Add orientation API to GtkPaned
- 553765 Add orientation API to GtkRange
