If No need to get snippy, Rich. That was an honest and straightforward proposal, and you could give a straightforward answer instead of making up fantasy situations. As it stands, I think I've figured out the question we originally wanted to ask, and it is this: "Is it ok to put the generated C++ code for Qt and KDE bindings for python in KDE-CVS?" I think a derived question should be: "Since kdebindings contains _tools_ to create bindings (doesn't it, mostly?) and not the bindings themselves, does it make sense to create a kdebindings-dist or somesuch where the results of the tools are stored?" Reason for this question being, I can imagine people wanting to use the bindings more than wanting to use the tools to generate the bindings. That would be a quick way to increase visibility of the bindings, and that, as Rich points out, would be a Good Thing. > Are core developers the specialists in language bindings?

Discussion to move over there (where I'm not subscribed, so please CC me back, or even more preferably, CC Simon Edwards since he brought this up). - -- pub 1024D/FEA2A3FE 2002-06-18 Adriaan de Groot Would you like a freem? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFAXgSAdqzuAf6io/4RAj84AJ9aBqfmAXbAKo4FdxO9UtrEdkihKQCgg0xK LsZAif1DQgstyFQg4SnVOZk= =Lc9e -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
