Description Alan Horkan 2005-03-20 17:08:50 UTC
figment should probably be removed from Garnome, or replaced with
gnome-outliner

Figment Outliner
http://www.handhelds.org/~mallum/figment/

Gnome Outliner
http://gnomeoutliner.sourceforge.net/


In response to my enquires about figment I got this message from the
maintainer.
Gnome outliner doesn't seem like it is developing rapidly either (only one
release) but I haven't tried it out yet.

Hi;

Im glad you liked figment. I havn't really developed it for ages now
and I guess you could call it umaintained :( However have you seen;

http://gnomeoutliner.sourceforge.net/ ?

I know they took at least a bit of figment source code and afaik its
still under development.

Good luck + sorry I cant be more help;

Upon receiving the bug report I reviewed both of these applications. At present,
figment is the more mature product.  The question that comes to mind is:

   "What additional features would "we" like to see in an outlining application?"

If the answer is "none", then figment is fine.

Figment has been removed from GARNOME since it is no longer maintained. If you
would like to request a package to be included into GARNOME (i.e.
gnome-outliner) please file a bug report separate asking that it be added.
