Hi again Sorry for my tone yday. I appeared to be addressing Alex negatively but in fact i do know he has done and continues to do a lot of hard work to help Base users. There are quite a few people that do and quite a lot more, no doubt, that would give more time if they were able to or if there was a structured team.
I don't know how to set-up a team to do something like that.

It's not something a single person can do tho. It needs a LOT of people to jump into it. I guess that is why so many people work on various different single-purpose front-ends. There is no management bringing all those people together so each person ends up feeling like they are very alone.

AFAIK, Python can do that with tcl, wx, gtk, and no doubt other graphical toolkits so why not ? ;-) I actually went scouring for stuff like that the other day on sourceforge because I need to have a frontend I can design, implement and distribute over a network and multiple-OSes. I haven't had time to try the various bits out yet though, most of which looks PHP-based (but only because I have a vague understanding of PHP - my python skills are way too low to attempt something like that at the moment, but I did give it some thought :-)) Alex -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
