Good call, Ikbel -- thanks. I've created a wiki here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch/Dev/AutoRotation It's linked off of the Development page in the "Areas of Interest" section: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch/Development I've filled in some details, and left much more to be done :-) d _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~multi-touch-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~multi-touch-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
