Hi Guenther, It's true neither Grr and Newstand as they are currently will really fit in the new Étoilé approach based on CoreObject and EtoileUI. If GAP people are interested by Grr, I think it's a good idea to hand it over, before trying a more radical rewrite. The only thing I'm not really sure about is whether GAP should continue to use Grr name or not? If Grr is forked between GAP and Étoilé, it would be better to have a distinct name. I personally like the name Grr and we could continue to use it in Étoilé, but it's up to you to decide. On the topic of the rewrite, rewriting RSSKit as part of an unified messages store (mail, feed, chat, etc.) that sits on top of CoreObject would be really nice. I don't know whether RSSKit API should be kept as is or not. It could be integrated within the message store API. Apple has also introduced its own RSS framework in the meantime, so we might want to standardize on this API… A new Grr based on a CO as part of the 0.5 release would be great :-) Cheers, Quentin. _______________________________________________ Etoile-dev mailing list Etoile-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/etoile-dev
