gpe system configuration

Hello all.
I 'm new to the developement on ipak and on gpe. I 've downloaded the cvs
tree and finaly undestood how is working your developement system.
The fact thas we should develop on a linux-x86 box, and then compile on
the ipaq cluster is not evident. I 've lost lot of time triing to
cross-compile..
Perhaps someone should write some HACKING file in the gpe/docs dir..

I would like to bring some help to the project. I've seen on the web site
that the configuration GUI part lacks developers. I propose my self..
Actually there are many config gui stuff in the ipkg, more or less active.
(isgui, keyctl, sysset)

What should be my work?

My idea to make something like a container, where all configuration stuff
will be arranged, and uniformised, in the spirit of sysset.
, to integrate the existant gui, and make new one (multiuser, theme
selection, etc)
On the other hand, familiar-menu ( appmgr or mmenu) can assume the task of
the container, minus the uniformisation and smaller size.

What is gpe staff opinion about configuration gui?

Greets,
Pierre Tardy
