java-gnome has been around over 12 years! The current 4.x series was originally an initiative of Andrew Cowie at Operational Dynamics, who started using java-gnome to write tools for executing massive changes and upgrades. java-gnome has since become a general library used by people writing GNOME programs for both their business and personal environments. We have contributors from around the world; feel free to join in.
