First of all, I would like to thank everyone who replied to my previous entry about application frameworks. Then, I would like to say mean things to everyone who has yet to reply. If you are a developer, and have used GNOME, and are reading this, there should be an email in my inbox. This takes 2 seconds, it's not like I'm asking for your first born (yet).
And to clear up a couple questions/etc that I have received. When I said DBus was unstable, I meant it in the sense that a) It's API isnt frozen yet. b) It isn't on a lot of computers. For something to be a part of your development platform, you need to be able to assume that someone with GNOME 2.6 installed has it. That is not the case with DBus yet. I am greatly looking forward to the day when that is true, as I think DBus provides a very important piece of this desktop platform.
Also, Yes, I am looking for things that aren't being worked on that you think should be, and no, I'm not saying I, or anyone else, will work on them. I am just looking for information.
And finally, I am not using this information to create a master plan to take over the world, or your computer (Seriously, I was asked this).
So, keep emailing me with your feedback.
