+<p>
+    While cairo is implemented and C, and has a C API, it is expected
+    that many users of cairo will be using it from languages other
+    than C. The glue that connects the core cairo library to another
+    language is known as a <em class="firstterm">language
+    binding</em>. This appendix attempts to collect together
+    issues that come up when creating a language bindings for cairo
+    and present standardized solutions to promote consistency among
+    the different language bindings.
+  </p>
+<div class="sect1">
+<div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both">
+<a name="bindings-general"></a>General considerations</h2></div></div></div>
+<p>
+      The naming of the central <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-t.html#cairo-t" title="cairo_t"><span class="type">cairo_t</span></a> type is a
+      special exception. The object is “a cairo context” not “a
+      cairo”, and names such as <span class="type">cairo_t</span> rather than
+      <span class="type">cairo_context_t</span> and
+      <code class="function">cairo_set_source()</code> rather than
+      <code class="function">cairo_context_set_source()</code> are simply
+      abbreviations to make the C API more palatable. In languages
+      which have object-oriented syntax, this abbreviation is much
+      less useful. In fact, if ‘Cairo’ is used as a namespace, then
+      in many languages, you'd end up with a ridiculous type name
+      like ‘Cairo.Cairo’. For this reason, and for inter-language
+      consistency all object-oriented languages should name this
+      type as if it were <span class="type">cairo_context_t</span>.
+    </p>
+<p>
+      The punctuation and casing of the type names and
+      method names of cairo should be changed to match the general
+      convention of the language. In Java, where type names are written
+      in StudlyCaps and method names in javaCaps, cairo_font_extents_t
+      will become FontExtents and
+      <code class="literal">cairo_set_source(cr,source)</code>,
+      <code class="literal">cr.setSource(source)</code>.
+      As compared to changing the punctuation, and casing, much
+      more reluctance should be used in changing the method names
+      themselves. Even if get is usually omitted from getters in
+      your language, you shouldn't bind cairo_get_source() as
+      cr.source().
