Hi,
Has any decision been made on the inclusion/exclusion of the
SDL library
( http://www.libsdl.org
/index.php ) ? I'm quite keen to make sure that
SDL is in, and stays in, the core system. I won't type out
a big
argument in favour of SDL here, but I wonder, is there a
suitable forum
where we can lobby for such things?
ttfn,
John

Hello,
I won't type out a big argument in favour of SDL here, but I wonder, is there a suitable forum where we can lobby for such things?
I would say this list would probably be the best place to start the discussion. According to the list's purpose:
This is a mailing list for the discussion of the base olpc software platform. This includes kernel, base libraries, core X issues and basic desktop libraries and runtime.
Has any decision been made on the inclusion/exclusion of the SDL library ( http://www.libsdl.org/index.php ) ? I'm quite keen to make sure that SDL is in, and stays in, the core system.
SDL 1.2 is still in the SRPMS for the OLPC project on the fedora server, but AFAIK it is not being used when the actual OS Image is being created.
SDL in itself is not that big, but did you also want auxiliary libraries pulled in also? For example, SDL-image, SDL-sound, SDL-ttf, etc, etc.

Hi,
SDL is cool. We include it in Maemo and the Nokia 770.
All the games in the 770 are based on SDL. It is quite
popular with developers in the Maemo community. A number of
SDL games have been easily and quickly ported to the Nokia
770.
It also seems to be a good environment for learning graphics
programming.
Some information about SDL in the 770 can be found here:
http://mae
mo.org/maemowiki/GameDevelopment
As you can see it's mostly geared towards games
development.

We include it in familiar as well; it's about 140k
compressed.
