In relation to this I want to say that I inted to apply for something like this in this year's Google Summer Of Code. I have posted a roadmap and description of what I whish to do in my wiki page: http://wiki.enlightenment.org/index.php/User:Dresb#Google_Summer_of_Code This is a extremely early version, keep in mind that I expect items being included, deleted, extended or polished based on the feedback I get during this weekend and the next week. I was not aware of the existence of "edje_container.c" until a few minutes ago so I'll take a look now and possibly update my page =) You can direct any feedback to my wiki talk page, email or you can find me on both #e and #edevelop as "dresb". I will try to be logged all the time during this weekend and the following week. thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
