I didn't suggest a lengthy tutorial or a support matrix. Just a list of interfaces we use. It takes some work, but it doesn't have to take nearly as much work as you're suggesting. 1. "I need sd_foo_interface to implement foo feature" 2. Write code 3. git commit && git push origin master 4. echo sd_foo_interface >> http://live.gnome.org/Interfaces -- Shaun _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
