Not that anointing something as holy pee always works (remember Tracker v Beagle), but I think in this case it is worth it. Personally I would like to use one of these frameworks to automatically take screenshots of Conduit releases, but so far I'm stuck. I don't have enough time to compare all the available options, and don't want to waste time picking one that doesn't get anointed at a later date. Perhaps this same rationale is the reason [1] that we don't have * Some sort of desktop wide automated system for keeping screenshots up to date in documentation (and taking them in all supported languages) * Heaps of GUI regression tests in JHBuild John [1] The other reason, of course, is that people don't have infinite free time to hack on these things _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
