Wow! Peter, that's alot of packages! If you want to take over my
imlib packages then please go right ahead. I was initially reluctant
since I got attached to them since I've worked on them for so long
(relatively speaking). Anyway, please let me know if you want them.
Otherwise, I'd be more than happy to maintain them, and incorporate
the HELIX changes into them. I guess I need to start using Debian's
CVS installation.
Incidentally, I've also been working on the Imlib2 (snapshot)
packages. I'm guessing that HELIX won't be needing those for quite
some time. :-)

That's one way to look at it. :-)

Sounds good.
Out of curiosity, do any of the current gtk/imlib/gnome developers
have any opinions regarding this topic?
Thanks,
