Of course, there isn't much documentation, but only with the gtk+ docs
and the examples provided in the package it's quite easy to do complex
interfaces.
Afaik lgob is a one-man project, but its author, Lucas Hermann Negri,
is very friendly. Even he has added some features I needed when I
requested them.

Note that I'm a lgob user only, a quite happy user in fact, not
related with its development.
My intentions is to point to this project as I think it deserves more attention.
