I would be happy to serve on the "iup comittee", as long as it is understood my primary focus is on Phix, with getting the same stuff to run seamlessly on OpenEuphoria an important but secondary goal.
The decision is not up to me, but I think it makes sense for both OE and Phix to standardize on the same GUI/API.
Hmm... there isn't an IUP committee yet but perhaps there should be. I like the idea that Phix and OE could standardize on the same GUI.
The three biggest issues that I see with IUP are all solvable. And they are:
- No one is actively maintaining IUP wrappers.
- No one has used it to create anything as of yet.
- There doesn't seem to be a Mac OS X port.
