Hi,
I'm new on Fresco but I have compiled and tested it with both GGI and
SDL (SDL is slow than GGI but it's more stable ;-).
I think Fresco is better and much modern than X11, so I want to
contribute.
The first thing I'll do is writing an article for an Italian magazine
comparing Fresco and XFree 4.3, the second is this desktop environment
proposal.

I don't know C++, only C, Perl and Python so I can't help you with
something server side.

The first thing that comes into my head is that all the widgets must
stay on the server in WidgetKit.
The desktop (now called Pyro because it'll be written in Python) will
have some objects like a terminal, panel and a file manager.
The panel IDL file is half done (I need to write Pyro::Panel::Applet)
and it'll be available on my own website.
A file manager is much hard than a panel, but now I am writing an IDL
file for it.

What do you think about this project?
Any idea?
