Well, the point is that they don't, so car and train are quite different. D- Bus and AllJoyn may be quite different after the fork due to different objectives. > I.e.

I don't know, and this is after a couple of years interacting with AllJoyn people. They never approached us (D-Bus community) and talked about those things, so we never got a good analysis and discussion on how to keep compatibility, much less keep a single code base. I'm not going to speculate further. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago (AT) macieira.info - thiago (AT) kde.org Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ dbus mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dbus
