I recall a recent discussion about setting up an IETF-style process where GNOME, KDE, et al. could write their own specs and submit them for review. I'm unable to find a searchable archive of lsb-discuss or lsb-spec to find the discussion. Anyone have more details?
The key, though, is that we've thought of such groups and of enabling them to do the work they'll eventually need to do in standardizing their environments. It's rather obvious to folks that have been participating in LSB for at least the last six months or so that properly specifying such projects is not in-scope for LSB-1.0, due to reasons such as: (a) the projects do not (yet) cover core OS functionality, (b) they're still under heavy development, and they therefore lack a stable set of interfaces are appropriate for a standards specification, and (c) other portions of the spec have priority. -- jim knoble [EMAIL PROTECTED] På 2000-Mar-21 klokka 01:02:18 +0100 skrivet Gael Duval: : this leads me to the following question: do KDE/Gnome core developpers : (and other main projects) currently participate to the LSB? If yes, : what do they think about this issue, if not, why didn't they join the : LSB?
