Just to throw another dog into this fight, I've recently been very concerned with making legacy applications "work as well as possible" in the sugar environment. They will likely always be second-class citizens, as they weren't originally designed for kids, may be overly complex, etc, but it's clear that the limited developer resources at OLPC don't have time to (for example) develop a full-fledged kid-friendly video- and sound-editing application, yet that's the next thing that kids want to do when given Record. There are some very nice programs out there in linux land, we'd like to make using them reasonably *possible*. Eventually, of course, we'd like to see a (for example) inkscape port which emphasized UI simplicity, kid-friendliness, and the rest of the Sugar guidelines, but at the moment we're stuck using inkscape as is. Could someone with some experience with GTK/Gnome themes comment briefly on how reasonable it would be to create a theme to make legacy applications look as much as possible like our "old" sugar and "new" sugar proposal? --scott -- ( http://cscott.net/ ) _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
