Given Carlos' explanation, I think there is some overlap, but there are also some things Carlos is proposing which I am not doing. I'm mostly concentrating on the widget drawing API and loading appearance information from a configuration file. Generally though, I would actually also favour removing a lot of the widget style properties and instead allowing the theme engine more control over the widget appearance. Apart from simplifying test cases for each widget, it would be useful to "native" themes that try and emulate the appearance of other systems (e.g. Windows or OS X). At the moment the Windows engine has to set a bunch of style properties using gtk_rc_parse_string(), which is not a very elegant solution. > Carlos has been reporting progress and answering questions during the > IRC team meetings; Thomas: you should join next week and do the same. Will do; apologies I couldn't make it this week.
