Hi,

As I understand it one of the aims of polkit-1 is to avoid the quite horrible
interface of polkit-gnome-authorization. Therefore there is work underway
to allow some control in the applications themselves, and multiple backend
support so that management can be folded in to existing infrastructure for
those that require managing privileges of lots of users.

Therefore I don't see polkit-gnome-authorization being ported to polkit-1,
and the transition will lead to it being removed.

Discussion of policykit development takes place on

   http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/polkit-devel

so if you would like to help shape the way this will work please
discuss it there.

Thanks,

James
