I have lots of idea to write down.
But before going on, I would like to know if:
1) this feature is Gnome - compliant (i.e.: is it off-topic to discuss it
here?)?
2) has someone else (single, groups or so on) started a similar project?
3) before I start writing down my specs of what I call Stam (Software Town of
Artisans and Merchants), I'll try to set-up an home page that shows my ideas.
I'll post the Url at the end of my (in-topic 8-)contributions to the list (...
it's only 40 bytes). I would like to know your opinion and technical
suggestions.
