  "textContent": "Hi athenian200, i'm greenjeans, one of the folks helping Daemonratte with the project, I read your post and was very moved by it, enough to want to register here so I could offer a message of hope.\n\nFor myself when we started our new forum and began these projects, I had been working solely with gtk3 in my app development, so gtk2 wasn't my first priority and I had lobbied some for forking it instead. But I do love choices, so when Daemonratte asked me to help out I was honored and happy to help in my limited capacity and skill level.\n\nBut see gtk2 isn't the only thing our team is thinking of forking/reviving, we have a LOT of things on the table and at some point when this current project has gone stable I want to actively work on doing the same for gtk3. In a perfect world they'd eventually meet in the middle and be a nice universal toolkit, but these ideas and projects are rapidly evolving, so we'll see what happens. But let me assure you as we did for gtk2: GTK3 is not dead yet, we will not let it go gentle into that good night.\n\nSo first post and all, sorry I didn't do an introduction, but I also want to say kudos to the whole Palemoon team, I spent a great deal of time yesterday running a slightly older gtk2 version on gtk2-ng, and it was awesome! I used it in fact for the test iso, and plan on replacing chromium with it in my distro project.\n\n* * *",
