But > its your call of course. Very probably I'll be doing the implementation at least partly separate from gnome-vsf, you're right. Despite of that, I think the scope of it is the same one gnome-vfs has, so putting it in a separate lib (without separate functionality like a really general permissions API) doesn't make terribly much sense to me at the moment -- we already have too much libraries IMO, we don't need another one just for the sake of it. In the end, it's the call of the gnome-vfs maintainers of course, not mine ;-).
