This have not been discussed +</I>><i> a lot but i think that this is a lack of time. For me the prior +</I>><i> thing to do would be to write a interactive::qt for mcc using +</I>><i> perl-qt4 or perl-kde4 +</I> +As you know i followed both ways, and i wasn't alone, i did it +with the help of Matteo (aka pasmatt). +The task you suggested was not that easy, we shared some code +Matteo wrote, but we could not reach any qt/kde working +interfaces. If you think that is the right way, and that was +discussed time ago in Mandriva also, why has no one reached +the goal? I think because it's not easy, code has been written +to work for gtk in mind for the most... + +><i> I think that if you want to write it in an other language this is +</I>><i> more because you have not saw that all our code is linked so you +</I>><i> will double the code base, the code to maintain, the possible +</I>><i> bugs, etc etc. +</I> +No that is not true, we don't want to use another language +we just considered to have also "plugins" written in other languages. +They could be run as a single applications maybe, and also inside new +"mcc". + +><i> you will upload it where ? you can use a github repo i think to +</I>><i> make it public. +</I>That is a possibility, yes. But if its goal is to be just a *mageia* +control center, well... why not to have it in *our* repository? + +><i> yes but our libraries are in perl too don't forget this ( libDrakX +</I>><i> ). In general i am not a big fan of mixing languages. +</I>and only perl is, at the moment. Big goal is to get our things +integrated. But what we can re-use is in next goal, and i do hope +help of other contributors here... + +><i> As mcc is in gplv2+ i think you have to stick with this licence ( +</I>><i> not 100% sure ) +</I>I think that's right, in such a case we won't have any problem in +(re)using existing software. + +><i> libyui has been choosen w/o real discussions, i don't want you to +</I>><i> loose you time if at final we don't choose it. +</I>That is not true. +<A HREF="https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Feature:UiAbstraction4mcc">https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Feature:UiAbstraction4mcc</A> +(This page was last modified on 27 June 2012, at 22:22.) + +What i recall clear is that this task was proposed a lot +of time in past, but nobody did it... Why blocking who +started working on it? + +><i> better work would be to fix existing one and add new +</I>><i> interactive::qt ( or qt4 ). And seeing the != between qt4 and qt5 +</I>><i> the port to qt5 will be a 'piece of cake'. +</I>you know i tried and i also tried to be helped by someone +of our community, but as we're all busy in real life and +we cannot do all, and we focus on what we can really do, +i think Steven has chosen a right approach.
