Ubuntu bootloader manager - backend

[Martin B.]

Hi Tomé Vardasca, hi Scott James Remnant,
I've noticed (
http://code.google.com/soc/ubuntu/appinfo.html?csaid=1B880D85BB307B89 ) that
you intend to create a GRUB configuration tool for Ubuntu Gutsy as part of
SoC.

I have started a similar tool with the same purpose (but for KDE/Kubuntu) as
part of kde-guidance package. The code (although the newest bits aren't
pushed to KDE SVN yet) has been written in Python and it is relatively well
separated into a backend and a frontend. I believe we can cooperate and
deliver a working GRUB editing solution for both GNOME and KDE using the
same backend.

Please let me know if you'd like to cooperate on the backend part. There are
also some "inflexibilities" in update-grub that need to be taken care of
before a good GUI for GRUB can be delivered.

there's any misunderstanding, just mail or ask.)
