That's great news!  Christmas is saved!
I also like your description of galib 3.0. I'm especially interested in

Do you mean that there will be unit tests ensuring the correctness of
the galib library, or a framework that galib users can use to test
their code (eg. GAUnit)?
We have been using cppunit for unit testing our code, which has been
working pretty well. We run into some difficulties when having to deal
with the random behaviors of the algorithm, so it would be cool to
have some more direct support.
