Well, it's at least apparent because both Scott and Erik have mentioned in public that they are working on their own replacements. OLPC management hasn't told me to stop working on the journal, but I don't see how I could keep working on it without risking to lose even more of my time. I asked Scott if he could say by Nov 17 if he thought that he would be able to ship his journal in 0.84 and he seemed to agree. I didn't got a single comment from OLPC engineers when I asked them about my DS replacement, so I guess it wasn't considered a worth possibility by them. >> We could easily hack the DS in 0.83 to return D-Bus strings for >> standard properties that are known (or rather, expected) to contain >> textual data, but introducing this inconsistency in the API may not be >> such a good idea. > > OK. What happens to Journal entries with non-Ascii titles? D-Bus strings are UTF-8 encoded, so that wouldn't be a problem.
