MS Windows and GTK+: DLL Hell

I'm glad GTK+ was ported to Microsoft Windows. I'm glad various open source and free software projects are porting to Microsoft Windows using GTK+. I sure wish they could all agree on one binary runtime distribution. Or alway supply a package specific version of GTK+ so that the application will always work, although that's admittedly evil.

Recent Reading

Kingdom River, by Michell Smith, 2003. A generation later sequel to Snowfall (which I haven't read), this book reads fine on its own. Ok post-apocalyptic fiction that's smoother but less quirkily interesting than Robert Adams's earlier Horseclans novels, with some interesting characters.
