you may safely assume that in 2 hours, no one will turn into a Gtk+ or
gnome developer. 

now, a general problem is people having different background. some have
never programmed under any windowing environment. some have done that
under various environments.  thus, you should first choose which of the
two groups you are addressing this lecture to. maybe you should start a
poll about that aspect? :)   (Marsy - pass on the valets...)

another question is whether you intend for this to be a multi-lectures
series, or a one lecture only  (Marsy - pass on the valets...).

my own suggestion would be to start up with a single lecture, more or less
in the format you've wrote about in one of your previous postings, and
with a set of links to related documentation in the final slide. then,
place the slides on linux.org.il's web site. in the future, if there will
be demand, you may want to create a lecture series about this topic. noet
that if a lecture series "takes over" several month of club meetings, this
is perhaps a problem. in that case , the meetings could be done on a
bi-weekly basis, interleaving the gtk+/gnome lectures with other lectures.
