I looked at GGI, and I liked it. If my memory doesn't fail me, Soren remarked that he was not much impressed with it last he checked it. What I'd like to know is if the Powers That Be of FreeBSD console (Soren and Yokota?) would, present state of the code notwithstanding, accept the adoption of GGI once deemed to be "ready", or if there is any fundamental flaw with it that makes this a hopeless propositon. -- Daniel C.
