How do we get this started? :)</blockquote><div> Just some ideas : -> remote control support / keyboard support lirc task other remote control, like with the hand on a touch screen, with the voice, ... find what you want with a virtual keyboard more control : create a playlist,... -> integration like mac os x = just press a button get all your media in one click ubuntu theme : maybe something transparent : same as elisa but no black screen, you can see your desktop behind. For example you chat on irc, and you're waiting a response. You can reopen elisa and see what happen behind -> gnome/kde controller/applet for elisa -> typical use case, you don't want to reopen elisa just to play the next song -> an option to launch it at startup -> a plugin to configure elisa : gtk,pigment or web server configuration with text file is no "desktop ready" -> do something if no graphics driver are available : is it possible to have elisa with no 3D effects ? -> integration with device : if elisa is your media center, when you plug your digital camera, elisa shows you a list of action, same for device like mp3 device. -> something with telepathy : don't know why, but i guess we can do some funny things All comments are welcome ! There is nothing on the wiki page. Does someone write something somewhere already ? </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Alessandro </blockquote></div> -- Loīc Dardant
