I would *really* like to switch to a new plib version (and make this a requirement), because ... - several pu.h widgets are depreciated, and are now in puAux, where they are actually maintained. (It's quite embarrassing if one has to submit bugfixes for obsolete widgets, when there are already newer ones.) - 1.8.4 has a few bugs that cause gui style problems (pink input field) - we have still our own version of puList, although that has now been included in puAux. (Cleanup of our code base.) - we have #ifdefs for plib >1.8.4 that shouldn't be there forever - we have at least one ugly workaround for a bug that is fixed in plib/CVS - puAux contains new widgets that we could use I don't think we gain much from forking plib. *If* we have people interested in working on plib, those can as well ask for plib write access. (The texture compression was IMHO not "advertized" well, so I'm not really surprised that it was ignored.) m. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
