Hi,

the first release of Elisa embeds its own rendering toolkit. For the
next release we have planned to split the project in two parts : Elisa
core with all its base plugins on a side, and the Elisa toolkit on the
other side. Such a separation will permit to simplify the core
architecture of Elisa and the development of the toolkit. In addition to
Elisa, the new library should be useful for many Python applications and
the toolkit would really benefit from it.

I wrote a documentation on the design of the toolkit. It is based on the
first release foundations, improving most of the problems we have
encountered. This documentation describes the basic concepts, there are
also some detailed UML diagram classes which present the API of the
toolkit. Here is the paper :
https://core.fluendo.com/elisa/trac/wiki/ToolkitDesign

Of course, there are still some issues to fix, and we would really like
to have feedbacks on the presented design. Don't hesitate to bring
remarks on what was made !

Oh, it also means that we must found a name for this new toolkit, what
about "pigment" ?

Regards,
