This depends if it is considered an external dependency or not. If you're an application: use whatever you want, though GNOME infra is preferred If you're external: use whatever you want, though GNOME infra or freedesktop.org is preferred If you're GNOME core: GNOME infra. GNOME infra ensures everyone in GNOME automatically can get involved (commit access, bugzilla, translators, etc), release-team has a good overview (we track everything in GNOME infrastructure, not anywhere else), we can assign GNOME milestones to stuff, etc. AKA: Network effect. Also: I'd consider Zeitgeist as (potential) external dependency. -- Regards, Olav _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
