Short description: ================== In a nutshell, PolicyKit aims to provide an API for querying and managing "authorizations" and answer the question "Is $PROGRAM allowed to do $ACTION on $OBJECT". Basically, PolicyKit-gnome provides an Authentication Agent that can prompt the user for his credentials, a set of classes to make it very easy to use PolicyKit from GTK+ applications, an the UI for managing authorizations. Summary so far: =============== + PolicyKit-gnome might be proposed for inclusion in the desktop for 2.24 + already used in a few official GNOME modules, and it seems it will be used even wider Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
