It's fun ! they're very young and still immature. They'd need a open new file dialogs so they could be launched from menu. Eyesight has some problems with timers, etc... that's why they're in PROTO. E17 binary repos are a good thing... but way too limited for my tastes. hey, that's why we have options ;-) btw, if binary packages include debug and devel, it's much easier to compile these missing packages since you just have to do them and not the whole toolchain.
