Let's hope so. Anyway I had an idea about whole
Trinity, I
already
talked about this with Calvin and he liked this idea.
I'd split whole trinity into 3 components: Trinity Libs,
Trinity
Desktop Enviroment and Trinity Apps. And call the whole
thing Trinity
Project
Trinity libs: qt3, tdelibs and other libs we provide
TDE: things only needed for desktop Enviroment. panels,
menus,
kcontrol, kwin ecc...
Trinity apps: apps based on Trinity libs, but which do not
require TDE
to be run.
What do you think about it?
Besides, split current tde* monolithic groups into single
apps. Do we
have any reason to keep them as they are?
As I just mentioned in another response, I VERY MUCH like the idea of modularization. I
think that would be a great R15 priority. (R14 sorely needs to focus on paper cuts. :) )
One of the appealing aspects about GTK desktops is the significant availability of apps.
For GTK users, building TDE in a similar manner would help induce users to pick and choose
non GTK apps from TDE.
Not to mention reducing build and debugging issues. :)
