Use Ribbon Interface in Open Source Applications

Hi,

Are there any open source implementations of the Ribbon interface available? I need to use them in a GPL licensed software, so the library should be compatible with GPL. The software is in VC++ 2005.

+2  A: 

wxWidgets supports ribbon interfaces as well.

+1, their license page (http://www.wxwidgets.org/about/newlicen.htm) specifically mentions that you are able to use wxWidgets in GPL'd software.

If running on Vista or Windows 7 then MS supply a ribbon SDK. There is a superb WTL article on this here.
