External dependency proposal: Vala

2009-10-12 Thread Ryan Lortie
Hi I'd like to propose Vala as an official external dependency for GNOME 2.30. Some GNOME modules are already using Vala, but they are placing generated .c/.h files into version control to avoid the need for other contributors to have Vala installed. That's just ugly. :( Using Vala to compile

Project proposal: libvtemm

2009-10-12 Thread Krzesimir Nowak
