Fixing some of the labs are now just a matter of time and work. Nothing to worry about.
What is important now is that issuing graphical stuff intended for GTK will brake JHS and probably not be healthy the other way around either. Those tasks can be handled by mere mortals so I assume now that JHS has come forward with so enormously wealthy graphical/plot/canvas option I guess the owners of individual labs will now come forward and make them runnable/problemfree for each GTK and JHS. How you want that to happen if each lab should test for GTK/JHS/Console or what will probably be solved and is more an admintration issue than technical. I would like to see two different sets of labs something like the top folder be named addons/gtk/labs and addons/jhs/labs and put the gui/plot dependent labs there under and then one that can be run by both (or all if you count console) addons/both/labs or something like that. You could also add a test for a keyword in the labs that would warn that particular lab is intended only for gtk/jbs and might cause problems in the other or can be run without problems in both or all. I guess you would treat the distinction between these similar to demos for the individual environments. 2011/12/6 Eric Iverson <eric.b.iver...@gmail.com> > Björn > > Thanks for the thanks.
