Krzysztof,
- the whiteboard stuff was a good collaboration tool, I hope there is more development in this, - keep the native filedialogues for win32. there where many posts about to have them and not the gtk dialogues. I strongly suggest not to touch them before contacting the latest editors.
Adib.

Please tell me how do you feel about removing the following code:
- dom/
- pedro/
- jabber_whiteboard/
- Scripts dialog
- Java binding stuff
- one of the Find dialogs
- native Windows file dialogs
Rationale:
- dom/ and Java binding are obsolete, the DBus binding should be used
instead. For high performance applications there could be a binary plugin API, but I'd prefer to do that once the internal APIs are sane (right now they are far from it).
- pedro/ and jabber_whiteboard/ contain Inkboard stuff which doesn't work.
- The purpose of the script dialog evades me. To what extent does the
scripting capability work?
- There are two Find dialogs, one of them is disabled with a notice in
the code encouraging to test it. This should be finally resolved.
- Native file dialogs are a maintainability nightmare and aren't that
much better than GTK dialogs; they are the reason I went for the "embed / link" popup hack for images instead of putting the checkbox in the import dialog.
If you have a strong attachment to any of the above, keep in mind those are only suggestions.
Regards, Krzysztof
