don't just port, fix it please! It's broken in a sense one would not expect, and not the best design ever... for example, the EDJE editor do not use EDJE, or at least not to the leven one would expect: those frames around the objects are nasty hand-written evas smart objects! I was upset when I read its code, really... Edje_Editor is well done with that regard, if you move it to elementary it would benefit both viewers and writers, and it should be easier to port! :-) > And since when was our policy to deprecate stuff, > just because there is other stuff in the repository with can present > similar results? because it's unmaintained, not because other projects... and it's more code to port to new changes, what is bad. Again, don't take it too hard, we're moving and not deleting it. It will just not get as much as "publicity" being at top level, but it will be good, it will give stuff that work and is maintained more! And will scare users less, when they look at SVN and see that half of existing projects are non working or not a good reference to use :-/ -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: barbi...@gmail.com Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
