The idea right now is that if your language can talk to DBus, you can be an activity. We may also need to create a small widget library that gets bound in various languages for GUI bits so everything can look consistent between activities too. But for the moment, DBus is the language-agnostic glue. Dan > I do understand Sugar is only the coating on the cake. That Gtk+, > Cairo, DBUS etc. shall be supported as well - they will.
