Hi all,
I am starting a new engine based on the "comic" one (thanks Tobias) to add
nice pics to the Frame. The engine will connect to various Pictures of The
Day websites (and maybe also to sites like Flickr), I started today with APOD
(Astronomy Picture Of the Day) which is working more or less (meaning that
like comic, the first display is a bit wacky in the sense that it needs to
reconnect to show the pic or something)
So with this engine on the making I need to add functionalities to the Frame
config dialog [Frame will use the Desktop config dialog as this one was
derived from frame and nicely improved and offers the same settings and
more - JP Whiting is the CDM (understand: Config Dialog Master) and is in
charge of that part].
My question:
1) develop a Frame applet (sort of branch) in playground along with the engine
and merge later with the one in Extragear when the engine will go to
Extragear
2) leave the Frame in extragear with the new code and put only the engine in
playground
The engine needs to go to playground in any case.
Cheers,
Anne-Marie
