Gotk3: GTK3 the Go way
Hmm, does the name "GTK" mean "Gnu Tk"? I thought this was "Go Tk" for a moment when I read the title.

if you look on github, you'll notice that all the obvious names were taken, e.g. go-gtk, go-gtk3. that was what really drove the project name to be gotk3.

gnome tool kit. Note that gnome is pronounced gi'nome just like gnu is pronounced gi'new.

I still remember Gimp's first release. Uhm, I guess I'm getting really old.
