I will try to make cairo back to compile again _after_ they can
stabilize their APIs.
They are discussing new APIs right now and quite interesting. For now
the simplest way to
be able to use cairo's api directly in GNUstep code is by adding a
special method to
cairo-back to export cairo context from the back, that's 3 lines of
code but it would introduce an
unacceptable dependency, thus it may be acceptable one day but I can't
judge that.
BTW, I hope I or someone will make glitz part to work soon, it isn't
hard, but my X
isn't accelerated and I don't how to do it. Though, the current cairo
integration is better
than any existing toolkits already :P Beside that, GTK+ won't be able
to rotate their
widget in the same fashion like GNUstep can after the integration
(according to Owen)
