OK, I appreciate that you start defining a use case. However, what's the difference with clicking on a similar icon on your desktop environment? > it is just as the MS office tool or > lauch-bar. so many options... I'm sorry, I don't know much about Microsoft world. Could you explicit the benefits of such launchers? Some years ago, there was a "Star Office desktop". It also had an email client. Thanks to the developpers of that time, such ideas of world domination have been deprecated in favour of much lighter and smarter integration. Now OpenOffice.org is a much better citizen of the various Operating Systems that host it, and does not try to behave as the operating system itself and launch applications. So if there is a real point in having a launcher, why not ? But it would be good to know that point first. > I have a lot of interest and motivation, and would like to work on that > component, but i cannot do it alone. If your project is good and well defined, other people will follow... I still did not fully get the path you would like to follow. An add-on ? Bundling software ? Or do you stick with the vision of integration into the core of OOo ? -- Les enfants, selon l'Organisation des Nations Unies pour l'enfance (Unicef), constituent près d'un tiers des victimes - morts et blessées - des bombardements [israéliens].
