I don't know anything about Xara Extreme, but they are indeed planning to license it under the GPL: http://www.xaraxtreme.org/news/11-10-05.html I'm sure that Cairo will benefit from some of their algorithms and ideas for sure. Perhaps Xara would even be best ported to run on top of Cairo, since it is illustration software. > -- Michael Torrie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
