Ahh - my mistake. Put it down to too much fun at the summit. I was thinking of gnome-system-tools and had naively assumed the control center was working in the same way :( JR Jeff Waugh wrote: <quote who="John Rice">3. Front End: my understanding of the current control center applets are that they have a front end and back end architecture communicating via XML. Would be great if we could support Python based front ends as well.That's true for the gnome-system-tools, but not for control-center. jrb has been open to Python-based control-center dialogues for ages, but no one has ever proposed/submitted one. :-) With regards to Python as a front end for gnome-system-tools, Carlos has a 'liboobs' library (unfinished?) which would benefit from lots of bindings. - Jeff |
