As far as DAPI goes, the current state of it is that it is dormant (read:practically dead). I'd love to be proven wrong, but as the person who wrote DAPI and received next to zero useful feedback on it I think I can say that. And, given that Portland project itself appears to be dormant too, I think you'll be better off not expecting it to somehow magically help you. when it apparently doesn't have the manpower to even take care of itself. > I want to also discuss about the specification of GNOME, KDE/Qt, > Mozilla, OpenOffice, and D-BUS, because I notice that there is > the obstacles to mutual conversion of the protocols. > > I are waiting for any questions, any opinions, and any proposals. I admit I probably don't really understand the design document, but am I getting it right that you're basically trying to create a set of cross-desktop D-Bus interfaces and wrappers around that? If yes, I suggest you first concentrate on getting those proposed on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list and a specification of them hosted at freedesktop.org . Such D-Bus interfaces would be useful even on their own and people could use them directly. It could also save you some work, since presumably by the time you're done with this, you won't have to care about KDE3 or Orbit because of these being phased out (I think Orbit is becoming deprecated in GNOME, but you better ask them). Finally, this should help you establish a base for your further work.
