About the schema. What I'm going to alter and want to add before proposal: - I want to make it possible to have a clean way of enumerating types - I want to make types and enumerations reusable - Cascade the translations (rather than embed them) Additional things that I'm going to pay attention to: - Investigate whether the xdg schema can be used to create a "WDSL"-like tool. Specifically for environments like KConfigXT which generates code based on the schemas of an application. And finally .. - Investigate whether I'm "for sure" "not" enforcing type validation checking at the service layer. Some people seem to get "extremely angry" about this specific subject, even while it hasn't been proven that the current version of the specification enforces type validation on the service layer. So I'm going to do a deep investigation and check for that. - Investigate whether I'm not making it impossible to perform type validation checking in the process of the desktop application. Again, some people seem to get "extremely angry" about this specific subject. So again I'm going to deeply investigate and check for it. Yes, I know the last two are getting hilarious. But I'm really receiving private e-mails from angry people about this. And I don't know why, yet when I ask them to specify the problem .. I get no answer. So I guess I'll have to devote my own time on searching for the problem. Anyway. If somebody else has as damaged brains as I have .. and is also willing to help me (sounds unlikely): contact me. -- Philip Van Hoof, software developer at x-tend home: me at pvanhoof dot be gnome: pvanhoof at gnome dot org work: vanhoof at x-tend dot be http://www.pvanhoof.be - http://www.x-tend.be _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
