I disagree. Adding another platform to kdelibs requires an imense amount of organisation work. Somone would have to review every single commit to not break support for this platform. If you find somone to a) get my fixes in b) fix all the other stuff c) maintain platform support, all for free, i owe you something. > hopefully you will succeed here =) as you come up with actual code or > questions, feel free to ask them here. I don't think i will. support from kde is minimal, as expected. So far i have dropped my porting work and moved to reimpliment plasma from scratch. I'm still tinkering on a solution to get plasmoids compatibile. >From your POV this sounds like a lot of work, but you always ignore the social work that has to be done to convince kde people to support a platform kde was never built for. I've experienced alot of flaming from kde when i started with cross platform and cross business Qt work. Same for most of the other people from that scene. -- best regards Arvid Ephraim Picciani _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
