Py plugin development proposal

Yes, and I would not have any issue doing that (I have not looked at envisage
yet ... maybe Martin can give us some feedback here).

I do not know what the decision process is within wxPython: I know I have a
need and can maybe help fill-up a community need while handling my petty
business ... what would the next step be/to whom must I talk ?

Regards,

Philippe

Robin Dunn is the "Benelovent Dictator For Life" (BDFL) for this project, and thus the one who will make the final call about whether or not this will go in. He may also suggest changes/improvements he'd like to see before it goes in. Once he has said this is okay to add in, I have the permissions, etc. necessary to make it happen. So basically, once the code is ready for inclusion, we just need his thumbs up on it. Of course, along with this, we should also solicit ideas, suggestions, etc. from existing wxPython app/IDE developers so that we can be sure the class can meet their needs, too. :slight_smile:

Thoughts, Robin? Do you have any problems in general with a PluginMixin type of class going into wxPython? (Obviously, I know you'll want to see the code before you give the final go ahead.)

Thanks,

Kevin

It sounds like it would be a good idea. Perhaps it should build on
pubsub and other utilities already in the library. Please take a look
at this page for coding guidelines: http://wxpython.org/codeguidelines.php
