Re: pspp gtk3 mswindows

[Ben Pfaff]

Friedrich provided a summary a while back of the regressions that had
been noticed in the gtk3 version.  I think that some of them have now
been fixed.  Maybe it is time for another status update.  When the
serious regressions from master are gone, then I think that it is time
to merge the gtk3 branch into master, and to release a new version of
PSPP.

Your thoughts?
