I think we need to formalise the interface names, and the method and signal names and then we can start to add this to a shared specification. Maybe add the g-s and g-p-m interfaces to a fd.o wiki somewhere just while we argue about the names and proper descriptions and examples. Anyone got any idea where would be best? It would also be nice to get some buy-in from the KDE crowd, to see if this sort of thing would be workable for KDE4 (now they have officially jumped on d-bus...) and how we can share a spec. Can some of the KDE guys forward this thread onto the relevant screensaver/power-manager guys please. While I'm writing email, there's lots of info about g-s/g-p-m inhibit stuff in the FAQ wiki, such as http://live.gnome.org/GnomePowerManager/Faq#head-b76532b07f369f7b952b9c9d35026f0e4c4ce622 Richard.
