There's a bunch of existing work out there that we could build on, but I think this is a very worthwhile thought experiment, so I hope no one shuts it down too quickly. :-) What I would love to see is further work on cross-platform deployment -- there is some cool work going on wrt building GNOME stuff on Windows, and I'd hope this is not ignored while we research cool new build tools. It would be great to release a suite of GNOME apps for Windows (maybe even OS X) along with our tarballs every six months -- to grow our audience and potential developer pool -- with the least amount of work possible. :-) - Jeff -- linux.conf.au 2008: Melbourne, Australia http://lca2008.linux.org.au/ "Whoever wrote [the Twisted documentation] uses a vivid and interesting style of prose which triggers pleasure." - Francois Pinard _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
