Hi,

I hope there is still some chances that Radek will change his dicision.

 From my point of view where is no real need in FSO/qt gibrid, because of
following reasons:

1. qt stack has richer functionalily, better performance, and less bugs
than that FSO dbus/vala thing (don't throw rotten tomatoes to me plese)
2. qt has it's own resource management, FSO - it's own, rewriting qt one
to FSO one is worthless effort
3. where logs of significantly more useful, easier and non-destructive
goals to rich, i can suggest few:
3.1 switch back to X11. with new graphical subsystem performance this
will work great.
3.2 switch to newer qt versions
3.3 fix 100500 bugs left
3.4 add gta04 support- most important
3.5 improve performance and usability
3.6 implement new features, like: 'geek' theme, sliding buttons in
answer screen

^^^ IMO this set can keep everyone busy for a while.

where is also no real benefit visible from switching to FSO. qtmoko will
become more complicated, more buggy, slower, harder to develop:(

I afraid i'll have to stay on non-FSO version forether. And certain,
this planned change worth more discussion. If someone wants FSO, better
to install it on debian or with SHR.

+1.
I've only recently switched from SHR to qtmoko (v31) and I'm impressed
with performance and maturity of applications. I really wouldn't like to
lose that again.

OK, I'd like to ask one question now. Is there a reasonable technical
way to *control* qt-stack-managed Freerunner without GUI? This means
sending SMS from CLI and all these small things.

In other words, I'm interested in command-line interface instead of
programming interface. I believe the latter is up and running,
but is the former implemented?

Frankly, I do not know what the answer is.

And yes, in case it is like You just invoke this function from this
library with proper arguments, I think I'll go and write a simple
CLI wrapper, for this is just what makes Unix-like systems so usable.
But if the only correct implementation lives deep in the code of qt stack,
then we'd better try and separate it.

Generally speaking, I guess it's convenient and powerful interfaces,
rather than compatibility with existing applications, that matter more
just here.
