Another change to the proposed structure: I'd move loci/ desktop/ themes/ icons/ (currently under pixmaps) to loci/ backends/ (this is where shared backends will be kept) icons/ (currently under pixmaps) Why, and why not symbols? Because icons are specific to backend applications; symbols are not. Cheers. Jeff -- +----------------------------------+ | J.W.
