Re: [e4-dev] ribbon experiment on e4?
|
Hi Susan,
I've done this already multiple times because all my presentations about
e4 end with a demo where the AddressBook-Demo from Kai is rendered with
a Ribbon and a PShelf.
It's quite likely that this code doesn't compile anymore against the
latest HEAD-Revisions but updating it to get in sync with HEAD shouldn't
be a problem.
I've never committed this to e4-CVS because of IP-Issues when using the
Ribbon anyways the code is available from my personal SVN-Repository [1].
