GNOME is aware of the ageing nature of its infrastructure and therefore is moving to GitLab. Nautilus has already moved to the new self-hosted instance.
Great news. It must have been a sometimes difficult debate trying to decide between GitHub, GitLab or something on gnome.org. Whilst GitHub may have greater mindshare, I think GitLab will be a successful location.
I don't think GIR and C++ are really compatible, though it would certainly be nice to have some more modern basis than m4 macros. :) But I'm probably just saying that because I'm still a highly confused Autotools user in my main project...
Given that D and Rust can create a mostly automated system for generating bindings, I am surprised to hear C++ would be difficult. Clearly girtod and gir already exists, and it seems nothing for C++ does. I guess the question is the a "market" for doing something. I'm trying to give up all use of Autotools: Meson, SCons, and if necessary CMake, FTW. -- Russel. ========================================== Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk
