Hi Graeme,
Why don't you release the code yet? Put a notification somewhere on the wiki
with a download link, or even better ask nicely to the Lazarus or FPC crew
to add it to SVN as a subproject. I'm shure they don't mind ;) Perhaps one
or two will join you and you will get more done in less time.

What happened to the fpGui and fpGfx projects? I thought (back then)
they were coming along nicely.
The first version of my widget set was based around a heavily modified
LPTK. I then discovered the discontinued fpGUI and fpGFX projects. I
tried to contact the original author to no avail. The fpGUI code
hasn't been touched since early 2002. After studying the code for a
few weeks, I came to the conclusion that fpGUI is much closer to what
I strived to accomplish with my modified LPTK. A lot was still
missing from fpGUI though.
After a long and hard think, I decided to start my widget set again,
but this time based on the work done in fpGUI and fpGFX (after all,
why reinvent the wheel). I also added to the mix some good ideas I
saw in Qt. So far I have completed quite a few things missing in fpGUI
and created a TODO list of things outstanding which should get it to a
usable level. I also added a lot of documentation as I go (hell yeah,
a programmer that documents... smile) as there was no documentation
included with fpGUI and fpGFX.
So I guess you can say I am doing a version 2 of fpGUI. :-)
Regards,
Graeme.
