Since I learned that Python was being dropped as a language for extensions
I've been working on porting my bookmark synchronisation extension
(epilicious), first to Seed (which I gave up on after a short while) and then
to something that compiles natively. C is too painful I find, so I opted to
write the extension in Vala (with some minor pieces in C since there are no
Vala bindings for Epiphany yet).
IIRC I still have commit rights, but I'm hesitant to push a change that
introduces new dependencies. Should I keep this extension out of the official
tree (maintaining it as a patch), or should I push it?
I don't care too much either way really.
I should add that I have the intention of rewriting the extension in Seed at
some point in the future. At the time (before the 2.28 release) Seed was
simply to much work to bother with. I'm sure this will change, especially
if/when libgee can be used from within it.
