[Gooseegg-development] New Freyja and mtk releases; GNOME port

[Terry 'M. H. I. <st...@we...>]

I have back ported some of my work on the gnome imaging libs to mtk, so
it's much more stable.  After a year in develop during my free hobbie
time ( ans soul calibur games ), I'm proud to anounce that the frist
bits of code for the GNOME version of freyja have started...

The GNOME version will support bonobo and some parts of mtk will be
ported over into a new support library.  The functionality of Freyja
will initally be rolled into the GNOME release, but will go back to the
original multi window views and control panels.  I plan to support DRI
with the new multicontext glx code this time.  The windows port will
effectively halt, so I can finally be free of the shackles of supporting
a nonUNIX platform.  Even OS X has GNU and a UNIX kernel now.

I have included my draft image modules if you wish to play with them,
which aren't compiled in by default to allow windows compatiblity.
However, in the future all plug-ins including models will use dlopen().
The python testing proved impossible; so I'm sorry I have to drop
windows from the supported platform list by release 0.2.0.  If you have
comments on the move to GNOME, please voice them.

Thanks to everyone for supporting the project.

cheers,
Terry
