Jepp. A dialer application should implement for example methods like "dial(string number)" and nothing more. Just minimal functionality which is needed to drive the application from the outside. > I'll try to go through those links but I would also say that the android > method of displaying information on the screen is a very good idea.

It is about displaying application in a launcher. This should be part of the discussion about a new window manager (illume, mokowm) and not application lifecycle. Feel free to open another discussion about this stuff. regards, morphis _______________________________________________ Shr-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shr-project.org/mailman/listinfo/shr-devel
