After 2 long weeks working on GStreamer and more especially on gst-player, i finally have the needed stuff in that project to continue coding on Getcontrol.

The video widget of gst-player now handles fullscreen in a xinerama compliant way. Tricky Xwindow embedding is now easy and no need to leak some X ressources.

I started to integrate GtkPlaylist from Totem after discussing it with hadess.

Last friday i was in a conference from Richard Stallman. It was very interesting and we had fun ! Discussing with Georg from the FSF Europe we agreed that something needs to be done in spain for the FSF.

Matthias Saou and me will try to get more involved in the FSF and my wife want to be a volunteer for administrative tasks if we manage to build a FSF Spain.

Good plans :)

Leaving this afternoon for Slovakia to check up my technical teams there. Hope everything will be fine :)

I'll soon start to integrate xine-lib & / or gstreamer for media playing as the UI is now closer to the final stage..

The project still miss a good designer for the default theme. I've been writing a theme documentation for Getcontrol so that it's as easy as possible to create nice themes for this app...
