Until then you can choose to package it or not.

Raster proposed just the small "main" list, I'd add systray, tclock and notification as I use them without problems, but nothing more. OpenGEU guys are using all the other modules/libs/apps and they say they have no problems, but I really don't know. I can also recommend python bindings as I'm the maintainer, but they're not really tied to E17 release so can stay in "extras" without problem (the less we carry, the better). -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: barbi...@gmail.com Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stay on top of everything new and different, both inside and around Java (TM) technology - register by April 22, and save $200 on the JavaOne (SM) conference, June 2-5, 2009, San Francisco. 300 plus technical and hands-on sessions.
