Well our layout is not really all that differen to yours.

We have xwt.standard.widgets and xwt.standard.shared, which would translate
to xwt.standard.impl, and we have xwt.standard.widgets.lib and
xwt.standard.shared.lib, which would translate to your xwt.standard.lib.

Personally I feel that it'd be quicker to just fix up what we have at the
moment.  We're a good 60% into it, and a change of direction now would
derail that slightly.

But my perspective isn't that important.  Benshaw, who employ Andrew and Rod
(who answers to Andrew), might disagree with you or with me.  Since they are
a big chunk of the drive behind the widget audit, I'd end up following them
and my guestimate is that they don't want to waste any more time adjusting
to and porting code instead of writing it, and we're doing a good job of
writing it at the moment.

If you were working on our cvs, it'd be finished within 2 weeks, all widgets
and 2 themes. :)  Anyway, I'm going to get back to working on it - wanna
make inroads on cardpane and tab/tabpane today.

Btw, check out our cvs and look how identicaly the monopoly scrollbars are
to win2k.  We're going for perfection. :)
