Why do you say that? Because Gnome is written in C? One can write object oriented code in C too. The last time I had a look at GTK+ 1.2 docs (ca. 2001), I found the design to be object-oriented in nature.
Also, check out PyGtk. If Gtk weren't OO, would it be possible to map it so cleanly to an """object-oriented""" language like Python?
Get a clue from this: PyGtk is far more popular than PyQt--not sure why, but part of the reason could be that Gtk is more OO than Qt!
