I should be able to have the graph widgets done in time for 1.0. I would say that inclusion of the widgets should be based on how stable they are and how much testing they've undergone. > Once the localization and unit testing stuff is in place, I say we > focus on getting 1.0 official.

I would like to see some things brought in from TextMate, Kate, Netbeans, and some other editors. Snippets and templates are big on my list. I also would like to see a discussion take place on dabo-users in addition to the dev discussion. The last thing I am worried about is creating something that is a little bloated and microsoft like.....However, let's not get into this now. Put all thoughts and opinions on the shelf and let's get v1.0 of the framework out the door. > -- Ed Leafe > -- http://leafe.com > -- http://dabodev.com > > > > _______________________________________________ > Post Messages to: [email protected] > Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-dev > _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-dev
