What happened to gtkmm2 ?

Hi,

A number of app authors have growing concerns about the disappearance
of gtkmm2 (the Gtk2/Gnome2 C++ bindings) from FC2. What happened ?
gtkmm2 and al (gconfmm, libglademm, see http://gtkmm.sf.net/) were part
of FC1, then dropped from FC2. Yet the gtkmm 2.2 libs are remarkably
stable and mature (speaking from experience).

Many applications rely on these, for example Gabber and cdrdao. cdrdao
is already part of FC2, but its GUI front-end (gcdmaster) is not built.
Is there an official packager for gtkmm ? Is there anything we can do
to help ? Basically this omission relegates a number of worthy projects
into undeserved obscurity.
