wxC project

Hello!

Few days ago there was a post
(http://wewantarock.wordpress.com/2012/01/11/wxhaskell-and-wxwidgets-2-9/)
from one of the main developers of wxhaskell project informing about the
future plans for the project preparing 2.9.x release.

One of the interesting things mentioned is:

- The C wrapper for wxWidgets has been moved into a separate project,
  wxC and built as a shared library 

which could be helpful, imho, for other wx-related projects and here I
can think of e.g. wxLua & wxD.

Another post
(http://wewantarock.wordpress.com/2012/01/12/who-is-my-community/) is
asking "is anyone out there interested in a C binding to wxWidgets, and
if so, are they interested enough to want to help?" and although I
suggested author to post to some wx list where it could have bigger
impact, it would be nice if some of you can write something if you bear
some interest to help having stable and nicely maintained wxC project?

Sincerely,
Gour

I don't think we need wxC since it'll just be an extra step in binding
for things to go wrong. The way things work with Lua is that it is no
easier to bind to C than C++.
