I don't feel like we're at that point; I would think that a gnome2 port is at least 4-6 months away, given the current level of effort. :/ > I am, however, in agreement with Christian here.

Yes, I'd agree with that, as well. It would certainly be more desireable to get GOG-without-interactivity out sooner rather than accepting a delay to wait for a more featureful GOG ... Presently, though, we do need to block at least until GOG [plus libgoffice, it seems] is factored-out from gnumeric [in the Sept/gnumeric-1.4 timeframe]. Given however long it will take to resolve the other issues, the world might be in a very different place regarding GOG features. After report/graphing, it sounds like the biggest single open issue remaining is the set of register UI issues. At the same time, reviewing GNOME2_STATUS ... there are still a lot of miscellaneous open issues throughout the project ... menu items missing, features mostly working, &c. Hopefully it won't be the death of a thousand papercuts ... but we do need steady, app-wide progress to get them resolved. ...jsled -- http://asynchronous.org/ - `a=jsled; b=asynchronous.org; echo [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
