And finally (for now), devel::*

enrico> use case is: I'm a software developer, I start looking from there

mornfall> it makes perfect sense for cvsbook to be tagged with devel::rcs, imho
mornfall> documentation is mostly orthogonal with everything in the facet
mornfall> build tool documentation... bug tracker documentation
mornfall> it combines with everything, really
enrico> uhm, right
mornfall> with exception of examples
enrico> gtk manual?
enrico> we need devel::ui
enrico> good!
mornfall> we do
mornfall> probably devel::network

So, devel::doc disappears into role::documentation and
devel::what-it-documents.

mornfall> i changed the description of ui-builder to User Interface
mornfall> so maybe rename ui-builder to ui and shove ui toolkits under it as
          well?
enrico> that can be merged with devel::ui
enrico> yes!
enrico> one makes the distinction with role::{program,library}

 - Rename devel::ui-builder in devel::ui
 - Tag GTK, QT, WX... with devel::ui
 - the distinction among glade and libgtk can be made using
   role::{program,library}

 - also add devel::network

There's still the idea of moving devel::lang:* into a separate facet,
but no consensus yet on the name of the other facet:

mornfall> it's either programming-language::, computer-language:: or just
          language::?
enrico> used to be langdevel
enrico> you want to make it explicit that it's 'for developing with that
        language'
mornfall> Development Language?
mornfall> that's ambiguous
mornfall> with implemented-in
enrico> yes
enrico> many possible descriptions are


And this is the last one for now.


enrico> can I post IRC conversation snippets to the list?
mornfall> sure
enrico> I can summarise what we said so far

mornfall> was a good bit of work :)
enrico> yes, it was


Ciao,

Enrico
