In general I like your idea, specially with Gtk+ 3.0 in sight we know we can break API soon so it seems like a good idea to gain experience in that area and it would not hurt us too much to add something stupid. One minor issue, I would prefer a mailinglist (maybe I'm just too old): - With a mailinglist it is really easy to participate - I can filter using X-MalingList and get notifications - We can detach implementation and API. So yes, I'm happy to review patches adding API that has been discussed and not been vetoed. I think I can be happy with such a scheme. So it depends on how Alp and others feel about. If we see that this is ending in a disaster we can adjust the process and Gtk+ 3.0 is there to rescue.. z. _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
