I'd say ask them what they need from a scripting language. Don't let them dictate our code choices to us (I'm not saying ignore they're opinion, it just isn't the last word). If we need to rip out Embryo and we're going to rip out Embryo, do it _before_ release. Putting it in and letting people get used to it to just rip it out later will just foster bad blood. dan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
