Out of interest how long before we have the..

<quote of directfb.org Long term todo>
Multi application core using semaphores, shared memory and message queues for 
simultaneous access of multiple applications to DirectFB (work in progress).
</quote>

And/Or is anyone working on it.

I realize there is already the Rootless X desktop or whatever its called, but 
this isn't really the same is being able to run two DirectFB applications at 
once, more like getting X to take advantage of a small part of DirectFB.

The reason I am asking is that it won't really be a good replacement for X 
till this happens, (that, and Qt and KDE being ported to it, but as you may 
be able to tell from my email address, I am biased).  I suspect this isn't 
actually the design goal of DirectFB (more aimed at set-top boxes where there 
would be only one app) but it is how I would like to use it eventually.

The answer also affects how a port of Qt would be done.

Ian.
