If not Qt, it needs something, I bet. True, supporting a couple "thin compatibility layers" ourselves might very well be a win compared to lwlib + redisplay-*.c (assuming we could also find sanity in the menubar and toolbars at the same time). But then, that's what lwlib is supposed to be.... How thin would the Motif and MS Windows layers be? Do/can we abandon Xt, GTK, and maybe Motif in favor of Qt on platforms where Qt is GPL? Do we care about stuff like multiple displays that Xt/Motif supports but maybe Qt doesn't? -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
