Guy,

Please note that I moved the C++ comments note to a '1. Code Style.'  

Maybe 'Code Style' to the wrong section header;  a more generic
'Coding Rules'  may fit better.

A section on data types should be added. The code has glib gXXX
types in some places and 'C' style (int,char,..) in other places.

Should the macro style (upper case with underbars) be added to the
'Name convention' section?
