Hello everyone,

this is my first contribution to gEDA (if accepted :).

I ported gerbv to Gtk3 and would love to get some feedback on the patches.
Due to the amount of changes needed, I didn't bother creating a patch set
and uploaded the changes to github instead:

   https://github.com/cleitner/gerbv-gtk3.git

The ChangeLog hasn't been updated.

A non-conclusive list of things I had to (or did) change:

  - Extracted/moved Gdk specific code from libgerbv to a separate lib. It
    should probably be removed altogether
  - Removed the "Fast" rendering modes. Gtk3 has no support for Gdk drawing
    anymore
  - Changed appearance in some places to adhere to GNOME standards (toolbar,
    title, spacings)
  - Updated the tool rendering to use Cairo. It follows the GIMP tool style
  - Copied the GIMP rulers as Gtk3 has no rulers anymore

I may try to implement COGL rendering of the gerbers if I find time to do it.

Cheers,
	Colin
