Hi all!

I'm working on interface improvements of GNU Backgammon. This is
improvments and simplifications which uses the GTK2 libraries a lot.
What really annoys me is that I very much have to write code twice. One
time for GTK+-2.6.x and a different for GTK+-1.3. The ifdef sections are
getting large(!) and the code files are bloated. I also find a lot of
code that's totally unuseful with GTK-2.x, which can be removed.

Now comes the big question: Should we keep compatiblity with GTK+-1.x?

Is there anyone using GTK+-1.x anymore? Do we need it? Can we skip it?

If we decide to break the compatibiliy with GTK+-1.x, should we then
make a final alpha release and increase the version number?

Any comments?
