I agree as well, I think adding skinning support right now would definately be getting ahead of yourselves, how about some working networking with firefox and wireless network cards, not to mention a system stable enough so I can run my machine for days without reboot? I personally think that solid office productivity and solid networking with wireless support is more important right now than getting theming working. I personally think that theming should come AFTER DirectX 9 and nVidia/ATI graphics drivers are working, that way the theming engine than render the entire GUI using hardware acceleration and particle effects (aka Mac OS X Quartz Extreme). Might as well do it right the first time than do a crappy job and go back and fix it later.

I have to say; he is correct. We need to do a lot more testing and coding before we can do that.

This discussion has come up on the list many times in the past (well, as far as skinning goes). Until ROS can run reliably and fast, there is no need for skinning support. When you can successfully run the NVidia installer to install your graphics drivers, then upon reboot run a dx9 or OpenGL based game and play for hours on end, THEN skinning support should be considered. Right now we still have graphical corruption just from our CURRENT windows classic look. Gunnar Dalsnes wrote:
I dont understand what this "fight" is about. Could you and Alex elaborate? I would take part in this discussion too, if i only knew what it is about;-)
