A lot of GUI could be improved without major changes to all of Pd. At the very least, it could be included in Pd-extended. Once this version of Pd-extended is released, I still have to turn all the GUI tweaks I did into patches and hopefully Miller will accept them.

The gui needs work - do you mean we need more/better looking gui objects? When I was working on OS X, I couldn't really use very many gui objects at once because of Apple's crappy closed implementation of tcl/tk; the lag was terrible. Pd devs can't really do anything about that (though it is a huge problem). A significant portion of pd users are on OS X.

Pd's gui definitely does need work, but without a clear roadmap it will be hard to say what priority that is, right? Watching that google talk has me thinking about all kinds of things.

for me, the biggest issue is with the UI. almost none of the points in
src/notes.txt deal with the GUI, and certainly there is no talk at all of
gui improvements.

to me the engine works fine - i mean, pd crashes sometimes but this is
usually due to missing or broken externals than to do with anything in the
engine.

it is the gui that needs work. i would like to work on this but i don't
know where to start.
