I've been thinking a lot about this whole EWL/ETK mess. Is there ANY way for these two projects to co-exist? Even share some of the same code? Could ETK be merged with EWL (perhaps have separate name spaces for each API under EWL?), at least then, applications can still link to EWL but use either API style. That is what we're talking about mainly here, is the fact that ETK emulates GTK while EWL has a new implementation. I know this would be a lot of work. There's bound to be useless duplication, but at least it could be kept to a minimum, and there wouldn't be this huge fork in the road for new applications (and existing ones) to make a decision which E toolkit they're going to use.

Are both sides willing to work together to provide a way out of this mess?

If (and I suspect) the answer is no, then I vote for removing ETK and have it be an outside project. Not that a "vote" has been called...
