Hey,<br><br>Ted, it sounds like I just tested the wrong apps. I think figuring out the status of cut/paste and what work remains until it does "just work" as part of the project is an excellent idea, but I'll leave the actual fixes off my application for now.<br> <br>James and anyone else who's interested: <a href="http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/student_proposal/show/google/gsoc2010/sarahstrong/t127052558540">I put up a preliminary proposal, publically viewable</a>.<br>Let me know what you think and whether you think it's a reasonable representation of what we've discussed here.<br> <br>Thanks!<br>-Sarah<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Apr 5, 2010 at 6:37 PM, Ted Gould <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ted@ubuntu.com" target="_blank">ted@ubuntu.com</a>></span> wrote:<br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div>On Mon, 2010-04-05 at 15:54 -0400, Sarah Strong wrote:<br> </div><div>> I agree that gracefully passing around a variety of formats is<br> > important.
