I have to admit I do not understand this position vs. the existance of a specification which does *name* desktop environments. If we are saying that the name of a DE does not matter in regards of its capabilities, then we should deprecate the OnlyShowIn/NotShowIn keys, and define something like RequiredCapabilities, or so, shouldn't we ? For now, I have a spec, and I am trying to respect it.. Probably I do not understand well what is the goal of such a spec ? _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
