Hi everybody! Due to the unhappy situation of the screenlets being forked into the universal-applets project there is some need to reorganize things, I guess. I want to make clear that I have no interest in either of the projects being abandoned or shut down in favor of the other. Instead I'd propose that we try to "share responsibilities", which means we logically separate the universal applets system from the screenlets as widget framework. One possibility I can see would be to have universal applets handle the whole "pluggable applet" thing (I think that part is called the "melange server", right?) and the underlying IPC-framework. The screenlets would stay a widget engine but would become subclasses of a PluggableApplet or alike. That way the universal-applets would focus on the underlying framework that can be embedded into gtk apps and the screenlets would mainly focus on the front-end and user-visible part. That way we maybe could get the best of both worlds without interfering. Of course this is just a first rough idea and I am open to any other proposals so please let me know what you think. Thanks in advance! best regards Rico (RYX)
