Hi,
I think the discussion took another turn somewhere so to be clear on this subject only.

First do we want to make gtk2 avalable now ? I'd say yes - in that way we'll get feed back on how it works out
and any one who doesn't like it can use the GTK1 version.

BTW has anyone checked the difference in performance lately.

Which brings us on to how to supply it.
The way to look at it I suppose is that it's the same program with two different GUI's and you can chose which GUI version you want to install
e.g you can't have ( officially ) both programs loaded at the same time as they will install into the same directory using the same
name on the binary, shourtcuts etc.

If that's accepted the best option is probably to have two installers one for GTK1 and one for GTK2 and you chose which one to download.
If we want to improve this later we can look at the possibillties of giving options in the installer(s).

Best regards
Anders
